Can I choose which AP scores I send to colleges?
The original transcript is through your school and not through AP - ask your registrar about that.Sending your AP Score Report means sending all of your scores at once. You have the option of withholding scores, but that costs money for each score you withhold. You might as well send all your scores, because it’s cost effective. If your scores from previous years were terrible but you feel safe sending scores this year, you’re showing colleges that you learned something from trial and error and actually worked hard enough this year to get sendable scores; therefore, I’d go ahead and send them. Besides, if you took the AP classes, they get reported on your transcript anyways and so the college will know that you took these classes. If they don’t receive scores for these classes, they’ll probably assume you just didn’t take the test or got a bad score and payed to withhold it.
Sending SAT Scores from Collegeboard?
Yes, they keep your scores on file. Your SAT and SAT IIs you can access online with your collegeboard account but AP scores you have to call the number and pay to access and send the scores. You have a grace period for about a week or so after you take the SAT to add/change which scores you want to use your free reports on. After that, the scores'll be sent no matter what or, if you didn't choose any colleges to send them to, the free score reports will not be available to you. You can send your scores out any time from when you take the test to the school's deadline, so don't worry. Good luck! I'll be retaking in October. " 1. During Registration You receive four free score reports every time you register for the SAT. We highly recommend that you take advantage of these reports, as additional reports are subject to a fee. Also, using registration score reports ensures that test scores are sent to colleges as early as possible. Choosing your score recipients during the registration process ensures that colleges have the most complete set of your information to review for admission as well as scholarship awards, course placement, or selection to a specific program or major. In a recent survey, colleges said that receiving score reports is important to them because it shows which students are interested in their schools. 2. After Registration You can send score reports at any time from your "My SAT" account. The time frames for score delivery vary based upon each institution's method of receiving scores. Please remember that an additional week may be needed for the score recipients to process your scores once they receive them. There is a fee for sending score reports after registration. However, if you are a fee-waiver-eligible student, you may have additional flexible score report credits."
Should I send my AP score of 3 to the Ivy Leagues?
Absolutely not. How could you even THINK of smearing the fine standards of the Ivy League with a score that's merely passing? I guarantee you they'll all laugh at you the second they see that score, and then they'll call all the other schools you applied to and tell them not to admit you because you ACTUALLY thought a 3 was Ivy material- preposterous! Then you'll live as a disappointment to your parents, dog, friends, siblings, pet hamster, and yourself for the rest of your life. You’ll never live up to any of the ideals you aspired to, or even close to them, for that matter. You'll end up at a SAD state school and will work like a dog in the never ending effort to attain success in this life and will ultimately fail because everyone hates you so much and you have automatically less potential because you didn't go to an Ivy! Your life will be nothing but a downward spiral no matter how smart or hard you work and you will never be one of the chosen few, forever excluded from the club of undergraduate prestige and this will haunt you until the day you die.Just kidding. Dude yes of course you should send it- it's fine. First off, if you don't, they'll probably assume you failed it (got a 1 or a 2). Second, a three probably won't do anything destructive to your app. I mean it won't be a selling point, but it won't hurt, at least not meaningfully. At most it's a quick eyebrow raise, especially if you aced the class and/or that's you're indicated interest, but even then you're fine. How do I know this? I sent a few 3s to my colleges, and I applied to several Ivies. Granted, the 3s were not subjects that I have a future in, but I ended up getting into ALL of them. I was also admitted to three top non-Ivies, one of which was Georgetown and that's where I’ll be attending.
How much do AP scores affect your college admission? Should I not bother applying to elite and ivy universities?
Thanks for the A2A!AP grades, not exam scores are what count in college admissions. I ran down the reasons exams don’t really matter in Lessa Scherrer's answer to Should you still show colleges your AP scores even if they don't meet the specific college requirement?The bottom line is that you have a very competitive profile, and I encourage you to not bother taking the exams for any AP classes you will be taking in your next year. If you are a rising senior, the exam grades won’t be available until long after the admissions process is done, so they are even less relevant senior year than any other year. And if you know you aren’t likely to do well on the exams, why pay for them?You should know that admission to elite and Ivy universities is generally not based on grades and test scores. Those schools make an assumption about what your test scores (SAT or ACT) will be based on your high school and socioeconomic status and only notice if the score is wildly out of sync with the rest of your application. Instead you need to focus on taking leadership roles and making a difference in your community (preferably a different difference than anyone else applying).
