<p>Well, this is my first year of taking AP's and I would like to know what happens when you call. For example, what do they first say/what do you say in return. Here's how I've imagined it so far:</p>
<p>Operator:Thank you for calling Collegeboard. Are you interested in your AP score? Press 1 to confirm, press 2 to cancel.
<em>Press 1</em>
Operator:If you want your score, you need to pay 8 dollars. Please give us a credit card number.
<em>Insert credit card number</em>
Operator:You have received scores...</p>
<p>I know this might be far off, so what exactly happens?</p>
<p>I did it last year and it was something like:</p>
<p>Phone: You have reached the AP Phone Score Report Service. If you wish to hear your scores you are required to pay a fee of $8. You must have your credit card and AP number available. Press 1 to continue and 2 to cancel this call.</p>
<p>Press 1.</p>
<p>Phone: Please enter your student AP number.</p>
<p>Enter AP Number.</p>
<p>Phone: Please enter your 20 digit credit card number, then enter the 3 digit verification on the front side.</p>
<p>Upon entering 23 digits it will accept or reject.</p>
<p>Phone: The transaction has been completed. Your score in Ayy Pee Calculus is … Five. Press 1 to continue or 3 to hear your score again.</p>
<p>theeboy3: Haha, this might sound like a dumb question, but did you just make up the 20 digit credit card number? Because I just counted mine and I’m only getting 16 digits.</p>
<p>^
It is supposed to be 16. (I checked too 
)</p>
<p>What if I don’t have my AP number?</p>
<p>^You can call them and get it by telling them your contact info.</p>
<p>Do you enter the 16 digit credit card number and verification 2 digit code all together? Any space between those, or just run the 2 together?</p>
<p>Um. What is the verification 2 digit code, anyway? (I have a number that is three digits long, aside from the actual credit card number?) Sorry, I’m really bad with this stuff, I’m borrowing my parent’s credit card… I’m REALLY paranoid that I have trouble putting in the right numbers or can’t find something and can’t get my scores while everyone else is, I’d die out of anxiety and desperateness…</p>
<p>the verification code is like the security code on a credit card. The little numbers besides the actual card number.</p>
<p><a href=“I%20have%20a%20number%20that%20is%20three%20digits%20long,%20aside%20from%20the%20actual%20credit%20card%20number?”>quote</a>

Yeah, it might be 2 or 3 digits for the verification code, depending on the card you have. I have a Visa that’s a 3 digit code, but I think one of my other credit cards has 4 digits for a verification code (maybe that’s my Am Express or Target…don’t know off the top of my head)…different cards have different #s for their verification codes I guess!) Don’t feel bad about not knowing how that verification number thing works. When you buy something at a store, you just swipe the card and don’t have to pay attention to the card numbers. Once you order a decent amount of things online is when you’ll pay attention to this stuff. Ordering things online is how I actually memorized the credit card number for one of mine!!! Plus, if it’s your own card rather than your parents’ card, you’ll learn this stuff. That’s probably why I know, because I have my own cards.</p>
<p>I just need to know if you enter both the credit card number and the verification code right after the other, or if there is some space in between, or if CB phone says something???</p>
<p>I think the verification code is on the back of the card, in the signature rectangle. And I think that after you enter the CC number, you’ll hear the automated voice ask you to input the verification code.</p>
<p>If I remember correctly, you needed to input AP number or SS number, your birthday, and a credit card number. Then you just listen.</p>
<p>
So it does ask you to do these separately and not just run them together?</p>
<p>^That’s what I recall.</p>
<p>Is it worth it to call for one score?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Nobody can answer that but you.</p>
<p>haha I always get so excited that I have to replay the scores 2 or 3 times :)</p>
<p>What if you don’t have a credit card yet (I’m only 17)?</p>
<p>Are you all positive that I can enter my Social Security Number instead of my AP number, or do I have to call the College Board?</p>
<p>Use your parent’s card.</p>
<p>@GreedIsGood, If you don’t have your own credit card, use your parents’ card.</p>
