AP Score Related Scholarships

So I previously posted this thread in the wrong forum, as I found out...but yeah, my question is: What scholarships are out there in connection with or based on excellent scores on your AP's(such as lots and lots of straight fives, or a bunch of fours and fives, etc?)

This is the only one I'm aware of and you really have to knock it out of the ballpark to win and be awarded a scholarship.

IMO, the biggest benefit of high AP scores is the credit you can get. You might want to look into what schools are most generous with AP credit. At some schools, you can earn between two and three semesters of credits.

Am I reading the rules correctly on that one, that exams taken as a senior don't count?
