<p>I took the AP Calculus BC exam and I recently realized that I filled in the bubbles incorrectly.
Instead of jumping from number 28 to number 76 I just kept bubbling in the answers (where, I believe, AB answers would have gone)! I am terrified that this will entirely ruin my scores! Will college board realize this and figure it out? Is there something I can do to make sure that the scores aren't messed up?</p>
<p>If your score comes back low, I believe you can order a manual rescore. If the score differs, you will not be charged. If they catch it, I’m sure they’ll score it by hand</p>
<p>“Students may request to have their multiple-choice answer sheet rescored by hand. That multiple-choice score and the free-response score are then appropriately weighted and combined. The resulting score is converted to an AP score and compared with the originally reported score. If the scores are different, the rescored score will prevail, and it will be sent to any college to which the score was previously sent. Students should complete the AP Multiple-Choice Rescore Service Form (.pdf/521KB) and mail or fax it to AP Services by Oct. 31 of the year they took the exam. They will receive a letter confirming the results of the rescore six to eight weeks after their request is received. The fee is $30 per exam”</p>
<p>I don’t know if they would give you credit for bubbling them in the wrong area, but this is the most likely situation where a rescore could work out to significant benefit.</p>
<p>And it does look like it will cost you even if the score is changed.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input guys! The scores turned out well so I guess CollegeBoard caught my blunder!</p>
