College Board Changes Scoring for Biology (Possibly Others)

<p>hifi, So the College Board’s own stated information is incorrect? </p>

<p>I guess you need to inform schools like [Cornell[/url</a>], [url=<a href=“http://www.utexas.edu/academic/mec/cbe/cutape.html]UT”>http://www.utexas.edu/academic/mec/cbe/cutape.html]UT</a> Austin](<a href=“http://www.biology.cornell.edu/advising/ap.html]Cornell[/url”>http://www.biology.cornell.edu/advising/ap.html), [UC</a> Davis](<a href=“http://admissions.ucdavis.edu/admissions/fr_ap.cfm]UC”>Undergraduate Admissions) and hundreds more (those were the first 3 I looked at) then since they give you 8 hours of credit (that’s 2 semester’s worth, you know) if you make a 5. </p>

<p>Many schools consider a 5 to be representative of mastering a full year’s worth of information in introductory classes for majors.</p>
