Should I send an official AP score report to colleges?

Should I pay to send my AP scores to colleges for admissions purposes? Is it enough to self-report in the Common App?

More personal question: All of my AP scores are really good, save for the 2 I got on Physics. Apparently, score reports send ALL of your scores unless you pay additional money, $15 per college. If I do send reports, is it worth it to cancel the sending of my Physics score? Or will colleges not care about the 2?

Self report. I’m assuming you still have to take APs this year, so you’ll want to send them officially after you get in.

You self-report on the application.

You send official reports once you have accepted an admission offer, and only then if the score(s) will get you credit or advance placement at that particular college or university.
