<p>How did you guys all do? I am very disappointed...I got a 3. And i was hoping to go into something with international business. Do you think this score might deter colleges?</p>
<p>lol munoz ur mexican and u didnt get a 5??? i m not even native speaker and i got a 5////////…</p>
<p>You can’t assume she mexican with the last name Mu</p>
<p>I got a 4 and I’m perfectly fine with it. Despite what you’d think, colleges don’t focus on AP scores for admissions purposes. You self report your scores for the Common App and AFTER you get accepted, you get them verified by Collegeboard.
tl;dr: I think you’re safe with your 3.</p>
<p>@gaowih: The AP Spanish Language exam is primarily focused on reading comprehension and essay writing skills and typically that’s were native speakers struggle. In fact, I don’t think it’s too uncommon to see natives struggle with the exam in general.</p>
<p>Hey, a 3 is passing and will get credit at most schools. Colleges don’t really care about AP scores for admissions purposes (though of course taking the class looks good on a transcript). Don’t let it worry you.</p>
<p>This is a tough test, so there’s no need to mock others gaowih 
</p>
<p>Anyway, I got a 4. I really wanted to pull a 5 for my teacher, but I am definitely happy with a 4. I think that I sailed through the reading and informal writing and speaking sections, but the listening and the formal parts were likely what hurt me. Man, that listening is brutal.</p>
<p>I got a 5! I was so surprised, I’d never gotten more than a 3 on the practice tests. Granted, I guess I really underestimated my conversational and writing abilities, because I assumed I would be scoring low on those. My practice multiple choice were usually only like half correct, but I think I nailed a lot of the MC on the actual AP test. </p>
<p>I guess I was just having a good day. I understood a lot more listening/reading passages than I usually do and I think I spoke really well during that section, while usually I’m awkward and incoherent. My essays were a weak point. </p>
<p>I hadn’t had spanish class that semester due to block schedule, so I hadn’t written anything in a while. Also, my school doesn’t have AP spanish, so I met with the spanish teacher afterschool on his own time for a couple months to study for the exam. For that reason, I really wanted to do well to impress him, but I was pretty resigned to the idea of just passing. Such a pleasant surprise!</p>
<p>I got a 5, which I was pleasantly surprised with, considering I screwed up a fair bit on the speaking. The listening was mostly ok, and I thought the reading and writing were pretty easy.</p>
<p>I got a 4. The thing is, I have a moderate speech impediment so I don’t know how this is even possible. Anyways, I think I did mediocre and I was crunched for time on the presentation, so yes - what an awesome surprise. Received 14 credits and am skipping Elementary Spanish 101/102, and Intermediate Spanish 201/202!</p>
<p>For prospective AP Spanish students, use proverbs and idioms throughout the exam whenever possible, as well as conditional and imperfect subjunctive.</p>
<p>@gaowih i’m not mexican/latino/spanish/etc…this is a fake name that i use for this website, but nice try!</p>
<p>@mariamunoz Havinv read some of gaowih’s posts, I think he/she is a ■■■■■. I would be surprised if he/she actually took the AP Spanish Lang. exam. Personally I don’t mind him/her too much, because I think a lot of the posters here worry too much about the AP exams and he/she provides some comic relief. :P</p>
<p>A 3 is a great score. Especially since spanish is not your first language.</p>
