<p>Alright, so I took AP Biology and earned an A in the class, but on the test I got a 1. I took the AP Government test (also received an A in the class), but received a 3 on the test. I wanted to apply for the United States Air Force Academy, but I'm afraid they'll reject me because of these scores. I know I can withhold them, but then they'll get irritated that I withheld the scores, and reject me because of that. Basically, are AP scores a deal breaker? The thought of it being a deal breaker is making me distraught.</p>
<p>There are any number of reasons for not taking the AP exam in the first place, which would mean that there is no result to self-report, and there are plenty of students who would rather drop dead than report even a 4, so no admissions officer is going to care if you have a course labeled AP on your transcript, but don’t self-report a score. Stop worrying about this.</p>
