<p><em>sigh</em></p>
<p>Did none of you read my post? I said it "can have a HUGE effect upon admissions." </p>
<p>"can" "can" "can" "can" "can"</p>
<p>What is it with people and glossing over words and dogpiling? Sheesh.</p>
<p>If you're the kind of person who's depending upon grades/scores to get into a good college, of course they're going to have a huge effect. Weak grades, rank, etc. is another path where AP scores could make a huge difference. I wasn't talking about ZorroX99. Besides, did any of you read the second part of my post? The "you're probably fine" part? </p>

Same goes to you. Why don't you stop making a big fuss? For the record, I only read the OP and the last post, I never even read your post until now, as you made a big deal out of it (as it is that I don't read every single post...). I didn't read your post. Boo-Hoo. I was simply agreeing with the person above me.</p>
<p>I don't read every post. Get over it.</p>

<p>I wasn't replying to you. And thank you for proving my point about reading comprehension.</p>
<p>END.</p>
<p>I hope to god that you read your post and honestly think that you were replying to a particular person. Hypocrite much, I believe you need reading comprehension skills the most.</p>

ROFL. I won't even comment on this.</p>
<p>Do AP scores still matter on say, your college freshman resume, if you're applying for say, internships?</p>
<p>For example, if your AP average is 4.25 for 8 APs and you're competing with students who have 12-16 APs with an average of 4.8+, will that be a major disadvantage, especially when your freshman grades don't tell much yet?</p>
<p>frankly though, it certainly won't help you if you do send them. and if you don't send them, then you took them for nothing. i think ap scores matter to a certain extent. cornell asks for them as a supplement to the common ap and the uc ask for them. it is a factor or they won't ask for it. </p>
<p>and i think colleges, when they look at an applicant, they look at many different factors all at the same time. i don't think they first look at one thing, and then another, eliminating people if they don't meet the cutoff. </p>
<p>normally, i would say that the actual AP score does not matter much, and just by taking the test, you stand out more than many other applicants. if all the OP said were his low scores on his APs, I would tell him not to worry about it. however, it is strange that his APs do not match with his SAT scores at all.. if i was a college admissions officer, (which I am not), i would see his AP scores and think that it is strange.</p>
<p>so i agree with Ealgian that it can hurt his application. "can" as in it is POSSIBLE that it will hurt his application. for one school, it might, and for another, it might not. you guys cannot say for sure that it won't either.</p>
