<p>what major(s) are you interested in? kind of school, size, location,etc?</p>

<p>“predicted scores: 4,3,4,4,4”</p>

<p>yea, no, you can’t predict a score, especially english, where grading is subjective.</p>

<p>why would u take the AP if u r expecting a 3 or a 4?</p>

<p>…what? Only in CC’s universe is a 4 a bad grade on an AP. Many colleges accept credit for 3’s as well.</p>

<p>I don’t know how it works in your school, but at mine, if you take a class, you have to take an AP, regardless of what score you think you might get. And while I can understand being concerned if you predicted a 1 or 2, getting mostly 4’s and one 3 looks just fine. Colleges barely look at AP scores anyhow, so if you do well (which yes, means a 4 or even a 3), you’ll just get some req’s out of the way, while if you do poorly, not much lost. On the other hand, not taking a fair amount of APs after you’ve taken the classes looks really suspicious. This is what I’ve heard, anyhow - and I’ve gotten mostly 5’s so far.</p>

<p>That being said, to the OP, predictions are notoriously accurate. Start getting a list of schools you’re interested in together, but wait until you actually get scores back to designate matches, reaches, and safeties.</p>

<p>“That being said, to the OP, predictions are notoriously accurate.”</p>

<p>How can you say that?? You don’t know his/her study habits, his standard rate on tests, and whether or not he is in the class. </p>

<p>You can’t accurately guess what grade you are going to get on the AP test. They are too unpredictable. You can guess that you may do well, but you can’t automatically assume that you’ll get a 4. For instance, I took the Eng. Lang last year, and I assumed I would get a 1 or 2, and got a 5, and my friend assumed she would get a 4/5, and got a 2. It’s too subjctive to say that you’ll get 4’s on the english exams. </p>

<p>I think what we were saying is not that 3’s and 4’s are bad, but that you can’t guess what you will get on the test.</p>

<p>Much ado over nothing, I’m afraid - just a typo. I meant to say " notoriously inaccurate." Mea culpa.</p>

<p>OTOH, I don’t see how</p>

<p>

translates into

<p>Oh, well, what I was saying was that. </p>

<p>I guess not him.</p>

<p>excuuuuuuuse me.</p>
