I had 6 AP exams this May, all of which were for classes that I took this year. These are my results
AP Calculus BC - 3 (AB subscore is also 3)
APUSH - 5
APES -5
AP English and Composition - 4
AP Gov + Politics - 4
AP HUGE - 5

I was expecting apeng and ap gov to be 4’s because I really didn’t care about credit for those classes but calc was supposed to be my easiest exam due to the fact that I got A’s both semesters and studied the most for that exam. I honestly was shocked when I got my score back this morning and started crying when it finally sunk in. I was so surprised because people who had C’s and D’s in calc this year and studied less than me for the exam still managed to get 4’s and 5’s. I just don’t understand how this is possible. Will this look really bad on college apps due to the fact that 42% of all test takers got 5’s while another 16% got 4’s on this exam this year, effectively putting me in the bottom half? Is there any way I can send in all my scores but calc to colleges and will that affect me during admissions. I was thinking a mc rescore but does it help or hurt you in most cases? Thanks
