<p>How will having gotten a 3 on the AP Lang test affect admission at a selective college? English has consistently been my strongest subject, and I had planned on discussing my passion for both literature and writing on college applications.</p>
<p>You don’t have to list it on the Common App if you don’t want to. They’ll never have to know!</p>
<p>But if I don’t report it wont they see I took the class and assume I failed?</p>
<p>Honestly, I don’t think colleges pay much attention to AP scores unless you’re an AP scholar or something. They want to see that you’re challenging yourself in the classroom and are making decent grades. I doubt they will look at your application long enough to even notice the absence of 1 AP score (there’s so many apps and so little time.) Good luck to you and don’t worry about 1 tough score!</p>
