<p>…does it get counted as a 0? I basically ditched 2 self-studies because I didn’t like the idea of getting 3s. Now I’m worried that they’ll get counted as zeros and pull down my average.</p>
<p>Does anyone have/know someone who has experience with this?</p>
<p>Yes, you will get a 0 for the untaken exams.</p>
<p>Well if you are really bothered about it, you could always just cancel your score (no cost) by sending a letter to collegeboard before June 15th.</p>
<p>OH MY GOD. Are you serious? I just assumed you couldn’t get any lower than a 1, so therefore it wouldn’t count. But, I guess not…</p>
<p>@Ohsacul: Yeah, I’m considering that. Except I don’t know if there’s a point in canceling an exam I didn’t take…</p>
<p>It could not hurt canceling it. It will cost less than $.50 to mail the letter. Go ahead, it won’t go against you this way.</p>
<p>let’s say i had signed up for an exam as extra…cuz i needed it for credit</p>
<p>i dont need it for credit anymore</p>
<p>could i go, do my “best” (so i don’t have to pay the school a $15 no show fee) then cancel it, so it doesn’t hurt my average for awards?</p>
<p>cancelling wiill just cancel that one test? and no fee?</p>
<p>Did you sit for the exam? If you didn’t, then there’s nothing to be scored. Nothing will appear on your score report.</p>
<p>Your school charges a no-show fee?</p>
<p>That really sucks. My school gives us a partial refund. I guess thats really nice of them…</p>
<p>Can you selectively cancel AP exams?</p>
<p>For example, if you took 3 exams in one year, can you choose to keep 2 and cancel the other 1?</p>
<p>well we don’t pay for our exams, so i guess its kinda to make sure the school doesn’t pay for unneccessary tests.</p>
<p>…was that a yes to my cancelation question? :)</p>
<p>Yeah, I think I’ll just cancel. I don’t know, I mean I didn’t sit for the exam, but one of my AP teachers told us that he heard rumors about getting 0s for untaken exams. I’m really just worried about my average at this point. :(</p>
<p>Really, none of this would have been an issue if my stupid school had some sort of a refund policy. That way, they wouldn’t get charged for the unused exams, I’d get a partial refund, and I wouldn’t have to worry about possible 0s. :/</p>
<p>your school is nice. you have to consider that most schools charge 85 dollars PER test. I spent around 260 dollars this year. That’s big money—plus, no refund.</p>
