...Will this make me look really bad?

Applying to College

<p>I totally disagree with Parentofivyhope
you know why?</p>

<p>They are two types of smart people</p>

<p>One type are those who work they're but off and get high grades like 97 but are not able to take a test due to lack of skills</p>

<p>and then there are those who get a 97 and will probably get a 100="5" in an AP test because i geuss they were just born gifted.....</p>

<p>I mean come on, a 4 on an AP is darn good to me. This is not a regular class or regents test we're talking about This is an AP class in which is just 1 point away from perfetc. Think about it.</p>

<p>PorkFriedRice, at the same time I'm not asking you to be complacent. Still strive to improve or do better.</p>

<p>All I have to say is:</p>

<p>;alksdjf;alksjdf;lkjasdf;lkjasdf</p>

<p>I mean honestly, answers to such questions are easily found by reading through past threads.</p>

23

<p>Ya, definite grade inflation. That 710 is going to hurt you. 710 is not a competitive score for Ivy's.</p>

24

<p>I wouldn't send it; as said above, they will question your entire application.</p>

<p>If you were an ADCOM would you rather have the kid who studies his butt off to get a 4 and a 97, or the kid who gets a 97 and a 5 because he is naturally gifted?</p>

25

<p>on a SAT II subject test?
(((ummm Hello)))? We're not talking about the SAT reasoning here</p>

<p>Subject tests shouldn't hold that much weight</p>

26

<p>if you're looking at the very top tier colleges it may not look that good. i'd still put it though, if otherwise they'll think you didnt take the test at all.
how is your class standing?</p>

27

<p>Yea, it will make you look really bad</p>

28

<p>What is wrong with you people?!!! The OP should not listen to you all. Are any of you even in college yet? No wait are any of you admissions officers?</p>

<p>Trackbabi17...Thank you....his stats are very good....do not listen to these people...they're only intimdating you</p>

<p>scutler, I am ranked 1st the last time I checked.</p>

<p>I think it's fine. You should send it anyways. If you've taken the most challenging courseload and gotten extremely good grades, colleges wouldn't put that against you. I'm in kind of the same situation. I only took AP bio (though I took 5 AP tests) but I'm taking more next year since that's when most of the APs at my school come in.</p>

32

<p>both scores are fine</p>

33

<p>It looks very bad if you don't send it in even let's say you got a 2 or 3 but in this case you got a 4 or 5. They are strong scores, the rest of your application will determine whether you get in but not the AP scores nor the SAT II.</p>
