Successful AP Rescore Stories?

<p>I also want to get a rescore on my ap biology exam. I got a 2 and totally expected a 3. Any success stories??</p>

<p>^ My advice is that you shouldnā€™t waste your money on rescoring (is it $14?). Same thing happened to me my sophomore year. I walked out of the Euro test being confidently with at least a 3. It turned out I got a 1. YES, a 1. I was planning to have it rescore but I never, NEVER heard a successful story with rescoring. So i dropped the idea and accepted the fact that I got a 1. Well, when I later took APUS, I figured out why I got that stupid 1. It was all because of the essays. I bombed those essays without knowing it. I had a very good teacher and he walked us through how to write a persuasive essays. I was just overconfident with my writing skill. </p>

<p>From my experience, if you are REALLY confident that you did good in the MC, you may want to attempt to have you tests rescore. Otherwise, the chance that youā€™re going to get a higher score is very low.</p>

<p>@leo0895, yeah I get what your saying but thereā€™s no way I did that bad. On the practice tests/essays that I did in class, I wasnā€™t anywhere near a 3. Even if I missed 20 on my MC thereā€™s no way that I got a 1/1/1 on my essays.</p>

<p>@nerdygirl999 yeah i got a 3 on my AP Bio exam and it shocked me because I studied my butt off and was expecting at least a 4. Everyone else got 4ā€™s and 5ā€™s at my school that had lower grades than me in the classā€¦ Iā€™m just scared to rescore and have it end up being a 2 or something :/</p>

<p>Oh can you get a lower score than what you have on the rescore??</p>

<p>Yeah, Iā€™m going to ask for a rescore because I purposely did bad on my Calc BC exam, missed atleast 12 MC questions, skipped 2 FRQs. The reason I am doing that is because I hate my Calc teacher, she always brags about getting her students all 5ā€™s and I wanna ruin her record. All I really wanted was a 4 (Doesnt matter if i got 4 or 5). I calculated that I would get atleast 60 point/108, which is a 4. Yet I still got a 5 on the exam. Going to ask for rescore to hopefully lower my score.</p>

<p>@dragooner4ā€¦thatā€™s definitely not worth the 14 bucks</p>

<p>Do not feed dragooner4, he is definitely a ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– .</p>

<p>@dragooner4 great plan, i suport u, if anyone bags on u ill be there</p>

<p>OMG RESCORED a 1 got a 2!!! Iā€™M SO HAPPY GUISE!! erhgmahSDFG.</p>

<p>@jdroidxw, dang, you got a fast response from CB o.O</p>

<p>@CamiTheAvenger Br0 I KN0W! I C@11ed trevor dude on tw1tter personally. and he was like 2 dude!!!</p>

<p>I got a 2 on the AP Bio exam but I was expecting a 4 (maybe a 3 at worst)ā€¦ Still thinking about a rescore. I worked so hard on that test and had an A average throughout the year :(</p>

<p>Is it actually possible to get a lower score on a rescored exam? It wouldnā€™t make very much sense would it?</p>

<p>Yeah it is possible, but if youā€™re in the 1 or 2 range it canā€™t hurt can it?</p>

<p>What would cause your score to go down?
Yeah I agree with the one and two thing, but If I got a 3 I donā€™t want anything to go wrong in the process of the rescore to cause me to fail. Iā€™m confident that I got a higher score but CB seems to be kind of sketchy at times.</p>

<p>Should I ask for a rescore? I got a 3 in AP BIO, and got a 3 on the AP practice exam too. But that was without studying and realizing how the new standards/questions were formatted. I went back, checked every answer that I got wrong on the practice test, and watched Bozeman Biology! Shouldnā€™t I get at least a 4ā€¦ And I had one of the highest Aā€™s throughout the whole class, the teacher loved me and gave me an award for being an outstanding student! This is my first three and Iā€™m tired of seeing everyone getting a 4, even the people that hated biology more than I did. I thought I deserved at least a 4. Any stories of rescoring that got them a lower grade?</p>

<p>^ domo, honestly, I donā€™t think the re-score will get you the 4 you want. Donā€™t bother.</p>

<p>I just got my AP results and received a 3 on AP HG. I was considering rescoring it. The fact is that I was not confident for the MC part but quite confident about the frqs. I checked a score calculator and even if I got a 0/74 on the MC but full on frq I would get a 4. Do u think the score was correct and the curve this year might have been really harsh or maybe they did not include my MC or frq? The money is not a big problem but I would rather not waste it unnecessarily. Thank you</p>

<p>Iā€™m in the same boat as you. I got a 3 on my AP WH exam and I totally expected a 4 or even 5. Even kids who I surpassed in my class got 4ā€™s and 5ā€™s. Similarly, I felt my multiple choice was weak, but my free response shouldā€™ve compensated for part I. I think Iā€™m going to send for a rescore. My thought process: If money is not an issue, why not. Better to try than regret later on.</p>
