<p>Do colleges look at low AP scores negatively in the admissions process or will low scores only keep you from placing out of classes?</p>
<p>In college admissions, AP scores are self-reported and you can choose to withhold low scores if you want. </p>
<p>After you enroll, high scores will get you placement and low scores pretty much do nothing.</p>
<p>Generally, AP scores will only help you or do nothing.</p>
<p>While filling out the scantron thing, I requested my scores sent to a specific college. Do I have to pay for this service? It also says something about $15 in the small booklet they gave us.</p>
<p>You can withhold your low scores????!!! That's amazing....</p>

<p>$10 per score.</p>
<p>can you do it after getting your scores back??? Actually can you just not send One AP score to college while applying...</p>
<p>Don't send it to colleges unless you know FOR SURE which college you are going to. Self-report your good scores and then after you are accepted send it to only the college you are going to and they will use your good scores for credit or whatever their policy is.</p>
<p>Some high schools put your AP Scores on your transcripts. Anyone know what to do about this? Should I report all my grades then or report none?</p>
<p>Does it look bad if colleges see that you took the class, and you don't have a score for that AP test?</p>
<p>How does a "withhhold score" look on the paper colleges get? Meaning, do they see something along the lines of "this kid took the test, but is withholding the score". Or does it not show up at all (kind of like cancelling)? Then why would people cancel at all, if they can just withhold?</p>
<p>can you choose to withhold specific scores and send others, or do you have to withhold all of them?</p>
<p>You can withhold whichever score you choose. But remember, it's $10 per exam withheld.</p>
<p>If you withhold the score, no one will see it except you and your school. It is like cancelling to the colleges, but remember, you don't get to see your score if you cancel, and you have to pay money to withhold your score, so there is a difference.</p>
<p>You must submit your withholding request prior to June 15. If you are a senior, that means you won't be able to see your scores and then decide whether you want to withhold. If you have a embarassing junior year AP, you can choose to withhold that now. So yes, you can withhold even after you see your scores (I wish they had this on the SAT)!</p>
<p>However, generally, don't withhold. It doesn't really make that much of a difference to colleges. When you are sending your scores to them, you probably have already matriculated at that college. A low AP score is not going to make them rescind your admission (unless you get like a chain of 1's or something).</p>
