Colleges prefer that those who take the AP class take the AP test, especially if the student has an A or a B in the class. Colleges won’t judge you negatively if you did poorly in an AP test, they can only say “Hey, at least you tried.” and go from there. If you did well in the AP test, they will say “Awesome, she tried and she succeeded!”

Summary: Taking the AP test doesn’t hurt, and you’d be amazed how you’d do.

Especially if you have a hard AP teacher.

Man, I thought for sure I’d fail AP Chemistry for 2007. I was so happy to get a 3…=]
