What I mean is, some advisors will try to make you abide by the advice given based on your score, and others know how useless it is. Case in point: I did mediocre on the math diagnostic, and got double 5s on AP Physics C. My advising folder had these two statements back to back: "Your AP scores allow you to test out of 8.01. Your math diagnostic score indicates that you should consider taking 8.01L."
