Is retaking AP Human Geography worth it??

I took two AP tests this year: AP Human Geography and AP World History. I actually took the class for World History, and Human Geo was self-studied. So, I started a bit late on Human Geography, and I went in knowing absolutely nothing. I thought I got a 1 or 2, but I pulled a 3 somehow. Still not very good for schools I’m aiming at (Columbia, NYU, Oxford (would like to pursue History track)). However, I went in to World History having studied well, and I got a 5. I am thinking of re-taking Human Geo next year to get a 5. I figure if I study a bit, it should be manageable. What do you think? Is it worth the time and money? Thanks so much!
