I'm so confused about AP exam scores- help?

1. When you apply to college, the application has an area where you indicate your AP exam scores. Since your HS transcript will list the classes you take, it would look odd for you to not report your scores and it would be a dead giveaway that you scored low on the tests, so either way you are screwed :(. 2. You don't have to tell colleges your score. If you want to cancel, I think you have to do so before you leave the testing center after you take the test. 3. Your exam score should correlate with your grade in the class. If you have an A in the class, you should get a 5 on the exam. Any discrepancy would hurt you. Would a college accept a person with all 2's on their exams or all 5's? You still have enough time to buy a Barron's review book and study and get a 3+.

1. I don't think so, but if they see on your transcript that you took AP and don't have your scores, they may wonder why not.... 2. Yes you can. Definitely. Go to this link and look under "Score Cancellation". You just have to fill out a form and mail it in. http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/exgrd_rep.html 3. Hard to say, maybe you should ask a college counselor, or simply ask the representative from the college. PS - I don't think you'll get a 1 or 2 :) If you need some preparation, here are some sample multiple choice and free response topics from past years along with potential responses and grading sheets, etc. Plenty o' resources here. http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/eurohistory/samp.html?eurohist Best of luck, I have to take the AP English Language exam next week and I'm sooo freaking out!
