Will you call for your scores?

<p>[AP</a> scores - Online Scores for Schools and Districts](<a href=“http://professionals.collegeboard.com/testing/ap/scores/online-score-reporting]AP”>AP Score Reports – AP Central | College Board)</p>

<p>I suppose they don’t get the names or they get the scores late or they could just tell the students what they scored, though…</p>

<p>pancaked…how is that unreasonable? it’d be much more effective to have an online login similar to act/sat to check your scores…and its free to get as early as everyone else.</p>

<p>The online system assigns usernames/passwords to authorized AP teachers and administration members. So we students can’t use it yet.</p>

<p>Though in reality, it would be much more complicated to deliver AP scores online. We sign up for our AP exams on paper (usually) through our schools. It would be a tremendous logistical pain to set up a way for students to create AP accounts and to link our names/scores to them while making sure nobody commits identity theft, the scores from previous years (with, might I add, different AP numbers) follow the same person, etc.</p>

You misread. I’m saying it’s unreasonable to suggest that CollegeBoard would keep the $8 system in place just for money. There must be some other reason. Obviously the online system would be nice.</p>

<p>Again, the online system is not for students. Your AP scores are not online, despite what some are saying on this thread.</p>

<p>^^How is money every unreasonable? :p</p>

<p>As I am an international student, I will be calling. I really don’t want to wait the extra 3 weeks for my scores to get here. Plus, the mailing system here is kinda messed up.</p>

<p>I’m not planning to call. Paying extra to find out the scores right away when I can just wait a week or two and get them for free doesn’t seem worth it to me. It’s not like learning earlier will change anything.</p>

<p>Also, if Collegeboard doesn’t keep the phone-in system in place solely for money, then why do they charge for it? Obviously they already know your scores beforehand. Why not allow students to call in for free?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Well, their phone lines would get destroyed if every AP student in the world tried calling for their scores at the same time.</p>

<p>I’m moving in mid-July, so what should I do? Will my scores be forwarded to my new address? More importantly, will they be late?</p>

<p>I’m definitely calling in for my scores. Last year, I didn’t get my paper report until the last week of July. I’m not waiting that long this time, no way.</p>

<p>question: last year, i didn’t call and just waited
i got something from collegeboard mid-july, but my scores were delayed (i think it just said not yet available or something)
they came like 5-7 weeks later
if i choose to call this year and my scores are delayed, and thus i get no information from the call, does it still cost $8?</p>

<p>I’m calling for scores this year. I didn’t last year…it took til at least mid-July to get here.</p>

<p>Nope, i will not be calling. In this economy, $8 is a lot. So, i will just be patient, even though i am dying to know what i got.</p>
