hiding ap scores from college

[gamayshark]

<p>so, i'm a junior and im taking the ap chem test in may. I will not do well on it. i do not understand chemistry (i have a horrible, horrible teacher), and im only taking it to opt out of having to take my teacher's final. so, since my score will not be automatically sent to a college, will my score be on my application, or can i “hide” it?</p>

<p>it will automatically go on your collegeboard transcript. all sat and ap scores do.
BUT you can cancel the test for a small fee, i believe. that just means it’s not scored - basically, like you’ve never taken it.
someone correct me if i’m wrong :)</p>

<p>Actually, I took an AP today. I saw in the book. If you pay $10 per test, you can hide the grade from a specific college. =]</p>

You may have one or more grades withheld from the report sent to the college you indicated on your answer sheet. To have a grade withheld from the indicated college, AP Services must receive your written, signed request by June 15 accompanied by a $10 fee per grade, per college. If your request is not received by June 15, the grade is automatically sent to the college indicated on your answer sheet.</p>

<p>The grade will be withheld from any future grade reports sent to that particular college. You may later release the grade to that college by sending AP Services a signed written request.</p>

<p>If you later decide to send an AP Grade Report to a different college, however, you need to contact AP Services to have the grade withheld from that grade report.</p>

<p>A request to withhold a grade does not permanently delete your grade, and all exam grades, even those withheld from grade reports sent to colleges, are sent to you and your school.
