<p>So the general consensus is that you self report your AP scores on the Common App, meaning you can omit the bad scores that you do not want the colleges to see. And if you matriculate at a certain school, that is when you send the AP scores. And after admissions, even if you have an AP Score below a 3, it will not matter.</p>
<p>Now, what I understand from this is that AP scores probably do not matter in admissions because they are not verified. </p>
<p>Also, you can cancel an AP score AFTER you take the test. Now if you can do this, what is the point of paying $10 and withdrawing a score from a college? And if you can withdraw/ cancel a score, what value can the AP scores possibly have as an admission factor.</p>
<p>Lastly, on the AP Score cancellation form, I will check: "This exam is regularly scheduled exam, Form ________." <----- but how do I Know the form of the test?</p>
<p>So someone in another post that you do not put anything next to the blank that is provided next to Check one: “This exam is a regularly scheduled exam, Form ______.” Can anyone verify that?</p>
<p>They may be verified after the fact. I.e. a college may not require score reports during the application process, but may require the score reports after matriculation to verify self-reported scores. Of course, self-reported scores discovered to be false when verified against score reports later can result in rescission of admission.</p>
<p>Wouldn’t omission and false reporting be different? Of course it would be a problem if you got a 1 on a test but put 5 when self-reporting. But if you did not self-report that 1 but it does show up on the score report you send after matriculation, I have read that no one’s admissions has ever gotten rescinded for this reason.</p>
<p>And, you can choose to withdraw or cancel scores. I do agree that a false reporting could lead to consequences because that is blatant lying. That’s not my issue though, I just want to bury this 1 on AP Chemistry.</p>
<p>No problem getting rid of the “1” on Chem. When you are ready to have your AP scores sent to the schools you ask the collegeboard to “suppress” (the collegeboard’s word for this) so that that one bad score does not appear on the record you send. It costs extra to do this but clearly, people do it all the time or this feature would not be available.</p>
<p>The collegeboard will send you a copy of what they sent to the schools so you know that the bad score wasn’t sent.</p>
