<p>I took my first AP Exam freshman year and I got a 3 for Human Geo. Is it rude to ask people like on facebook what score they got? I just want to know how I stack up compared to kids in my class. I know some kids said they did bad and failed, but some may think a 3 is very bad when I don’t. I think each person has there own opinion on what is good or bad. I asked some kids who I knew would get a 5, but I’m curious to some other kids who weren’t really my friend but were in my class. What do you think?</p>
<p>I’d ask em on aim or if u see them but not really on facebook…dunno up 2 u though.</p>
<p>not really … it’s only rude if you persist on knowing their scores when they say no.</p>
<p>Sometimes offering your own score helps, especially if it’s not a 5. :)</p>
<p>You could ask the teacher what the class breakdown was if it is the general performance of the class you want to know. The teacher will not name names, but will certainly know the class breakdown (ask would the guidance office).</p>
<p>Generally my rule is, don’t ask unless the other person asks first.</p>
<p>I have no problem asking my friends. I’m not going to go up to random kids from my school and be like “lol what did you get on AP World”.</p>
<p>^ lol. </p>
<p>There’s nothing wrong with asking them but don’t push it. If they say no, then drop the subject.</p>
<p>Thanks! I was asking kids on facebook but on the IM. I did say I got a 3, before I asked them but I told them I was happy! Is it bad to ask acquaintances from class and not really friends? I also kind of want to know how I did compared to particular kids in my class. I would feel stupid if I did worse then some kids, lol.</p>
<p>I also know some kids who would def. get a 5!</p>
<p>I ask my friends to ask their friends and so forth. Works well for me.</p>
<p>I just asked one kid from 8th grade, he always use to be number 1 in class and I was number 2. He got a 4 and I got a 3. I did ask him to tell me what others got, but he forgot about the mail and just opened it when I told him.</p>
<p>It really depends on the person. If someone asked me, I wouldn’t care (given that I’d gotten at least a 3). But I know a lot of people who are really anal about giving out their scores. So… depends.</p>
<p>I can see where your going, but to some people a 3 is bad lol.</p>
<p>It really depends on the person you ask. Some might take it offensively. Some won’t care. Some want to know your score as much as you want to know theirs.</p>
<p>I agree, it depends on the situation. Usually AP (and in my case IB) scores will come up in casual context in the lines of “Oh, how did your <em>insert exam name here</em> go?” If my friends give the thumbs down or refuse to answer, then we drop the subject. But if they did well, then we cheer for them =)</p>
<p>Asking once is fine, but if they say no, then drop it.</p>
<p>Ok. I asked some people and they never answered to me at all. How do I know if they don’t want to tell me or they are idle?</p>
<p>change the subject if they don’t reply. say something like “Oh yeah I hate working during the summer” or “are you going anywhere over the summer?” - just move off of the AP exams topic. if they ignore your earlier question, then they don’t want to answer.</p>
<p>Yeah, I have a good friend and I commented on her wall and said I got a 3, but didn’t ask what she got. Wouldn’t she tell me her score if she did good?</p>
<p>my general rule of thumb is that if you wouldn’t be talking to that person except for the fact that you’re asking their AP score, you shouldn’t be asking.</p>
<p>Also, I think it’s really rude to not tell someone your score when they told you theirs…it’s kind of a one-up on the other person. But that’s just me and my pet peeve haha.</p>
