More than 10 AP Exams.. and confused about sending AP Score Report?

Applying to College Common and Coalition Application

<p>I took 16 AP Exams, and as I can only list 10 on the common app, I chose carefully which ten to choose, but out of those ten, I didn't choose to put exams for some of the classes that I took. Is this part of my admissions based on just these ten exams? I read several times on college confidential that a Yale admissions officer said that not having taken an exam means to them a score of 1. I don't want them to think that I did poorly. But, if they see my AP Score Report, they'll get my full list of scores right?</p>

<p>But I'm a bit confused about how this works; it seems that you're supposed to send it after you get admitted? So in terms of admittance, they just look at my 10 self reported scores? is that right? Or do I need to send in an AP Score Report for admissions? </p>

<p>Even if I don't need to, can I, so that they can see more solid proof of my 16 scores?
I have an early deadline to Princeton on Nov 1, so I really want to know if I should send in an AP Score Report or not, so that the score report can arrive on time. </p>

<p>Also, AP Calc BC and AP Music Theory have subscores that would each take one of the ten slots, and I didn't list the subscores because I wanted room to list other exams. Would it be bad to not list the subscores?</p>

<p>You can list the additional scores in the add’l info section. The subscores for Calc and Music Theory do not need to be listed.</p>

<p>Send the score report after you are accepted. Sending beforehand is a waste of money. Depending on the college, the scores may end up at the registrar’s office for credit determination and not even make it to the admissions office.</p>

<p>So then would you recommend that I just list the scores for the AP classes I took so they can see more immediately that I did take the exams for the classes I took, and then list my self-studies in the additional info section?
Thanks so much for the quick response! I really appreciate it. </p>

<p>I don’t think it really matters, but your idea is fine.</p>

<p>Just put your best 10 scores on it and forget about the rest. They would not be suspicious of anything as you have filled up the slots. Do not put subscores there. AP scores self reporting has little impact on admission anyway. I don’t even think you need to list the additional scores in the additional information section. Additional AP scores that are the same or lower then those 10 listed would be the least interesting thing an adcom would like to see.</p>
