<p>The collegeboard AP awards don't give out money.</p>
<p>The Siemens award is definitely more prestigious because they award to the best female/male in each state. 2 people from each state receive the award, sometimes some states don't even have winners because no one qualified (like my state..).</p>
<p>Siemens > the CB Awards</p>
<p>mmmmmmm. </p>
<p>PA, female, 6 (Stat, CS AB, Bio, Chem, PhysC:M, PhysC:E&M)</p>
<p>Guess I shouldn't get my hopes up because of CA/NY/etc people though. =/</p>
<p>I took all 7 and got all 5s yet I did not win, (CA) probably because my raw scores and I'm sure I didn't do too well on CS AB because I missed a problem on the FRQ and I bombed the MC for Chem.</p>
<p>@8parks11: wow, some competition there. I'm sure my raw scores aren't that great either.</p>
<p>Does anyone know when and where the press release will be "released"? And is there a ceremony at the end of the school year? If so, where?</p>

<p>Um, aren't there 8 tests?</p>
<p>Shravas: I'm assuming 8parks11 "combined" Physics C: Mech and Physics C: E/M into one test. Or maybe he forgot about Enviro Sci or some other science AP.</p>
<p>Ecniecs: I want to know, too..</p>
<p>lol, </p>
<p>I think I got the better end of the deal. Indiana, female, 4 <---- seriously</p>
<p>Well, there are probably going to be winners with less than 4..</p>
<p>the results are released around mid to late February, at least according to last year (<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/305105-2006-07-siemens-awards-ap.html)%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/305105-2006-07-siemens-awards-ap.html)</a>. </p>
<p>however, I don't know when the ceremony is. obviously after school ends though.</p>
<p>anyone know WHERE the ceremony is?</p>
<p>SRSLY</p>
<p>they should make it top 100 kids in the nation, but then that's not fair to the midwest kids, to whom I say "lols dont care" D:</p>

</p>
<p>Is there even going to be a ceremony? I didn't know there was.</p>
<p>Maybe for the National winners... but for the rest of us?</p>
<p>yeah there is none for the state winners. i think at the most, ill be mentioned at school's award ceremony. and of course, our principal (who all the students agree has certain queer essence in his movements) will give me a sticker on my collar. the stickers in the past have been the worst experience in high school. :P</p>
<p>so there's a ceremony for 2 people? I had thought there was one for state winners.</p>
<p>anyway, from past years, the ceremony has been at the Smithsonian in D.C.</p>
<p>I just wondered about the ceremony dates because of the question on on the form.</p>
<p>"To assist us in scheduling a recognition ceremony, please provide your last day of school:"</p>
<p>I'm a little confused.. Siemens AP award winners aren't announced publicly until the middle of April, yet we've already all been contacted? What's going to happen between now and April that requires so much time?</p>
<p>to bump this.. has anyone received any emails from siemens since the questionnaire and release forms were sent to us?</p>
<p>I am taking 15 AP Exams....just to let u know</p>
<p>does anyone know how competitive California is in this contest? if anyone lives in california or knows someone who won, how many of the 8 APs did they get fives in?</p>
