Siserune:

We cannot know, can we? We can only surmise.

I expect that my S high SAT score in 10th grade impressed the adcom and was instrumental in his admission. But there is no way of knowing whether he displaced some other applicant who got the same score after several tries, early in his senior year.
But anyway, this thread was not about SATs, it was about APs. And AP scores must be treated differently from SAT scores.
Apples and oranges tend to go into different recipes.
