<p>If you have taken as many as about 5 APs up to the end of your junior year, is it rather pointless and unreasonable to the admission office when you have only taken one and made a single 5?
I know that test scores are not the whole enchilada in admissions, but I'm speculating that this might in a part show that a student is not very persistent.</p>
<p>Enrolling in and completing five AP courses, but only taking one exam – even though you scored a 5 on that test – might be a red flag in the admissions process. (This is true not just for Harvard, but for all selective colleges.) Speak with your Guidance Counselor/College Advisor as this might be something they could address in your Secondary School Report (SSR).</p>
