2 Important Question

<p>first question, on the test section, can I just report the test that I want to submit? Because for AP tests, I did really bad on 1 and average on others. Or do I have to report every AP test that I took? I know college will need all of my scores later if I’m admitted, but just for admission part, can I pick a AP test score to report?</p>

<p>Second question, my teacher already have submitted his letter of recommendation, and I used that for 2 colleges. But he wrote another letter for my next college because he wanted to write more specific letter for that college. I definately want to send recent letter that he wrote, but I can’t change it on the common app. should I send recent letter by mail? what should I do to make sure the college reads my second letter?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i don’t know about your second question, but i don’t think you can send selective AP scores. I tried to do that - i like bombed one and got a 5 on the other, but my guidance councelor said i had to send both or neither.

<p>1) you should know that the admissions folks will think you totally bombed both your AP tests, or that you didn’t even take the tests. never scenario makes a positive impression. It’s better to give the information, unless that is, the bombed test is in your major.</p>

<p>2) create an alternate version so your teacher can resubmit the rec.</p>

<p>I don’t know; for me, I’ve taken enough that I don’t even have space to put up all the tests and their scores; what I would do is if one of the exam score was a 1, I would not put it up while putting up everything else. A 1 looks worse than their assuming that you got a 1 or you didn’t take it. Give them the benefit of doubt. It works well if you run out of space and are asked to put in the additional information section. </p>

<p>As limabeans said, create an alternative version, delete his recommendation and ask him to submit another one for you.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
