Pre-estimation

Hi!

For my school, they do not allow any pre-estimation on AP courses. This is problematic for me. I currently will be taking 3 AP exams this year.

Assuming I receive all 5’s, without pre-estimation, (I will be taking 4 APs next year) I don’t meet Cambridge’s requirement. Although I narrowly meet Oxfords, I wish to attend Cambridge HSPS and this stunts me a great deal. Are there any solutions that I could work towards?

Can you ask your teacher rec to say something like, Although HelixHS does not permit teachers to predict AP grades, Helix achieves top grades in all their class work in these subjects and is as strong a student as students who have scored 5s in previous years?

(Would the school actually know if they did put in a prediction for you?)

I’m unsure, however, thank you for your response and idea. I’ll talk it out with higher members of authority and checkback.
