self-studying and getting an ok score???

<p>I have a friend who self studied AP Chem and got a 3. Even though she didn't get a 4 or 5, do colleges still view it positively and think that it displays her interest in science? Or would it be better if she took the test again?</p>

<p>I'm wondering because I'm also going to self-study AP Chem..</p>
