<p>If I received a letter indicating that I am being "considered" for the award, what does that imply? As in, how many people are also being considered?</p>
<p>For reference, I'm in Ohio, and received 6 5s on relevant math/science APs.</p>

<p>I also got the letter, also with 6 5s, and I was wondering the same thing.</p>
<p>Any idea when the results will be announced?</p>
<p>I also got the letter. Did you guys also get an email requesting a picture and some forms to fill out?</p>
<p>The email something about the specifics being announced mid December</p>
<p>Google is your friend</p>

<p>@reechar: I did not get that email, hopefully because they don’t have my email yet. How long after responding to the letter did you get the email?</p>
<p>@swimcatsmom: I’d hope you have enough confidence in humanity to trust that kids who can handle AP classes are also capable of Googling. Unfortunately, the website does not mention the letters.</p>
<p>@reechar - I also got the email, with a consent form questionnaire. Does this imply you’ve won at the state or national level? (Are there other awards out there?)</p>
<p>How long ago did you guys get the email?</p>
<p>@munchybunch: Well seeing as how we both got the consent form and questionnaire, it probably implies nothing about whether the award is at the state/national level.</p>
<p>@lidusha: probably a week afterwards</p>
<p>I looked at the website provided by swimcatsmom. It says </p>
<p>The Siemens Awards for Advanced Placement are awarded each year to students with the greatest number of scores of 5 on eight AP math and science exams, as well as to one teacher from every state for excellence in teaching AP mathematics, science, and technology courses.</p>
<p>So I wold assume that all you have taken at least 8 Science and Math AP’s. Just given the national competition, I am sure there are some students who have 5’s in 8 Science and Math AP’s. Hence if you have 6, I would assume it is more likely to be state than national.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, was anyone initially called about the award? After getting a phone call, they e-mailed me a set of forms that seem to be similar to those previously mentioned. I still haven’t received anything in the mail.</p>
<p>For reference, I’m from Hawaii and got 7 5s.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure this is state; there are way more than two names in the email list. I suspect they’ll email the national winners separately. </p>
<p>I got it in Oregon with only 5 5’s.</p>
<p>Yay! I just got an email. 6 5s in PA. :D</p>
<p>Eight 5s in Michigan! Just got the letter on Saturday</p>
<p>Is the Siemens AP Award given for most 5s on the exams taken in one year or can you receive it if you got all 8 over 2 years?</p>
