<p>say if you put why you had a bad SAT or SAT II score in the add. info</p>
<p>what will they think?</p>
<p>better off not explaining it?</p>
<p>i took chem when i was a sophomore, had a horrible teacher, got a 3 on the AP (this was my first time taking chem, no intro course either). The college will see that i took it in 2003, but should i explain that i was a sophomore blah blah anyway?</p>
<p>I got a 2 on the AP Chem because we had a horrible teacher and it was like a test run of the course (well, they were seeing if they could teach it to people who had not taken Chem before).</p>
<p>I'm not reporting the score...you probably should do the same. I don't know if its a good idea to use "the teacher was bad and stuff" as an excuse. </p>
<p>What would your excuse be for a bad SAT or SAT II?</p>
<p>I didn't think Columbia saw AP scores until after the final decision. There's no place on the application for it.</p>
<p>Yeah, there's a place on the Counseler Rec.</p>
