<p>To the OP, congratulations on being the first person in your school to get the AP Scholar award. You are in good position to be the first one to get the AP Scholar with Honor award too. At some point you will get a recognition letter and certificate from the CollegeBoard. The certificate doesn’t look half-bad, actually pretty cool :)</p>
<p>I’ve taken 5 AP tests, and gotten 5, 4, 5, 5, and 4. Would this be AP Scholar with Distinction? Also, does anyone know how this type of award is evaluated by college admission officers?</p>
<p>redsoxgirl: yeah, that would be AP Scholar with Distinction. (3 or higher on 5 or more exams, with an avg of at least 3.5). Congrats. with just 3 more exams, and hopefully you don’t get lower than a 4 in any of those 3, you are looking at the National AP Scholar award. (4 or higher in 8 or more exams, and an avg of at least 4 on all). Good luck redsoxgirl (but not to your team, though )</p>
