Suspicious AP scores

Test Preparation
1

<p>Hello everyone,
I know it's late but I can't stop thinking about my AP US History and AP Chem scores. I did pretty good in class (got A- in APUSH and B+ in APChem). I can't say I was the best in one class or the other but I felt confident after leaving the testing room. I expected a 4 or 5 on APUSH and 4 on APChem. I also took APCompSci at which I suck. So my AP scores are as follows: 3 (APUSH), 2 (APChem), 1 (APCS)... At first I was shocked and surprised. It also seems a bit suspicious that my scores are so... in order? Do you think it is me or CB messed up? I took AP Bio last year and got a 2, keep in mind my teacher didn't teach us much and then was fired by the end of the year.... I didn't know anything and somehow managed to get a 2. Here I felt much more comfortable with my subjects... What do you think, should I pay for a re-score of APUSH and APChem or wait and see what happens (I read that sometimes CB contacts students in September if CB finds a mistake in scores)?</p>

<p>I'm also going to talk to my last year AP teachers about that, will see what they tell me.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>Very suspicious indeed . . . a 3, 2, 1 - that sounds an awful lot like an Apollo count down from the late 60’s early 70’s. I wouln’t talk to my teachers about it unless you really, really trust them.</p>

<p>For what its worth, I’ve heard APUSH can be a bit disheartening. You expect a 4/5 and end up with a 3… :(</p>

<p>I think you should pay for a re-score. Since you obviously think that you deserve a higher grade on those AP tests, then you should ask CB to re-score it. You don’t want to go through the college admissions process and wonder, “Maybe if I had re-scored it, then my score would have been higher.” CB has made mistakes before, so just go for it.</p>

<p>Doesn’t seem suspicious at all. Just because you felt good coming out of it doesn’t always mean you did well (I mean they have some great wrong answer choices).</p>

<p>Maybe you could have put the wrong form number or something on the multiple choice sections, I almost did that, but caught it right as I was turning my answers in.</p>
