<p>Going to go enjoy my Sunday. Take care. :-)</p>
<p>Post #120, I don’t think so. I would like for you to point where I misunderstood. Please don’t use a onliner and then go away.
If I can summarize the first post, OP worries the admission chances for her son if he takes the AP Physics test and don’t do well base on the fact that the valedictorian who got A in AP Physics and didn’t even pass the test.</p>
<p>Well she is an onliner after all.</p>
<p>I meant one liner.</p>
<p>sorry for butting into your thread but I’m a new user and am still confused on how to create a new thread. I’m self-studying AP Physics B. I’ve slacked the whole year and am pretty sure that I won’t do well. I’m a junior. I don’t think I’ll be reporting my Physics B score in my CommonApp but when I get into college and send an official AP report for credits, I don’t want my physics score to be shown. So will I have to cancel it this year before June 15 or can I cancel it by next year before June 15? Also if I cancel it will my report show AP Physics B - Cancelled. or will it not mention Physics B only? I checked the collegboard website and it couldn’t answer my last question.
Thanks a lot!</p>
<p>You may pay the collegeboard additional money, along with a separate request to withhold an AP score that you do not want sent to a school after the date they allow canceling for free. I believe they call it “suppressing” the score. Then you request and pay money to have just the AP scores you want sent to the school of your choice. </p>
<p>To start a new thread there is a new thread button at the top of the forum you want to ask a question in. So if you click on Parents forum, you are brought to the whole list of parent threads that are in progress. There is a “new thread” button on the upper left side of the column in white you can click. Sort of where the 'Post reply" button is on this page.</p>
<p>Thanks. But if I ‘supress’ a score, will the college come to know that I’ve not reported it. And if give Physics B again next year. Will my old score be shown?</p>
<p>If you suppress a score I don’t see how the college can know it unless your HS reports all AP scores on your transcript. Ours does not but I hear that some HS do so you should find out about that. </p>
<p>I would think if you took the Physics test and did not do well and retook it showing you did you well that even if the schools saw that it would not be viewed as a negative but that you tried again. On the common app you self report any scores you want, you do not have to report all your scores there either. So you would only report your higher Physics B score there as well.</p>
