Uhhh excuse me, what? I got a 5 in APUSH and Lang, and I sure as heck wish I got that. Are you really sure you want to change that, though? It is unfair, but many of the students in my APUSH class struggled to keep up in class, yet did well on the AP exam, so I think they’d deserve a little reward for working hard. As for your question about if whether colleges would know, I don’t think your school reports that kinda stuff. If they do, and you think it might affect your admission, try and get a rec letter from the teachers in the AP class that matters most to you or your major. That’ll let them know you actually succeeded, and they will be pleased.
