<p>I took an AP this year and didn't do very well on the AP exam.
Do I have to put my score on the commonapp if I'm going to retake it next year?</p>
<p>The danger in reporting the score is that it might count against you. (Colleges will see everything you send them, even if it’s not required.) The danger in not reporting the score is that colleges might you have something to hide. If a college sees an AP class on your transcript and then looks on your app to see what the score was, they might wonder why you didn’t report it. You should also check with your counselor to see what test scores, if any, get reported to colleges along with your transcript.</p>
<p>Not really an answer, but worth considering…</p>
