<p>I'm an international student living in Japan and wanting to go to the top colleges of America. For instance, MIT. Since I have a great interest in computer science.
I'm still 15 years old ( I think that makes me the first year in American high schools.) but I'm studying hard and willing to demenstrate my power.
And then I found that American students take AP. I haven't taken it yet but I'm planning to .
So what I want to ask is that how many AP exams do you need to take to be rewarded the International AP scholar????</p>

<p>On the College Board it says
"International AP Scholar</p>

<p>Granted to the one male and one female student attending a school outside the U.S. and Canada that is not a DoDEA school with the highest average grade on the greatest number of AP Exams. The minimum requirement is a grade of 3 or higher on three exams. "</p>

<p>my friend got all 5s on fifteen during 3 yrs</p>

<p>The chances of winning the international AP scholar are slim to none. It's probably up in the 20+ range of exams with an average of 5 on all of them.</p>

<p>^ I agree, and unless you think you can compete, I would just drop it.</p>

<p>evidence plz</p>

<p>well, my state's scholar person had around 24 ap exams with most of them being a 5. i do live in a relatively large state with a lot of people, but its still just one state. seeing how competitive the international pool can be, i would think that the international scholars would have taken most (upper 20's as llpitch said) of the ap's available. it would be ridiculously difficult to accomplish</p>
