In 2017, 70 percent of students got a 3, me included. However, I had a 99.85% in the class itself as a freshman. Should I be worried or will colleges look more at the class grade over the AP Score since it is so disproportionate in the score distributions?
This has been asked dozens of times this week. No. Now if you got a 1 or a 2, an AO might raise an eyebrow and think grade inflation. Since AP Seminar is the first course in the AP Capstone sequence, and since putting freshman and capstone together in a sentence is the epitome of oxymoron, your HS might now also wonder the wisdom of opening up this class to freshman, since it’s generally a junior-level course, but that’s water under the bridge.
