<p>I know this has been a million times...but</p>
<p>Do colleges prefer to see AP Scores? Do most people send in their scores and does not sending in a score look bad?</p>
<p>AP scores are self-reported. They are only sent to the school you will be attending.</p>
<p>If your scores ar 4's or 5's it won't hurt to send them, and may help. Below 4 I wouldn't send them.</p>
<p>As far as I know, AP scores are not used for admission purposes; they are only used for class credits in college. There is no penalty for failing an AP test, so it wouldn't hurt to send them anyway.</p>
<p>Wait...so colleges don't care if you take like 4 APs your junior year and don;t send the scores for admissions.</p>
<p>But if you do send them you can not send some of your scores right? (This will be for a class that was not actually AP...so colleges won't see AP class-No AP Test).</p>
<p>I am asking this because I am currently in 3 APs and will take 3-4 next year. 2/3 of my AP I think I did fine, but on my Spanish AP I think I got a 1/2 (and to make it worse I have an A- in the class, which looks like inflation.) However, my school has a policy where I can decide to change the class I have been taking from AP to IV (only I would have done harder work for a lower class). And then I could just take the AP next year, without fear of being judged by colleges. Should I or should I not lower my class level, or should I just keep the score and send/not send it. Thanks</p>
