The other reason why AP scores do not count as much is that at many schools, students take the bulk of the AP classes offered by the school in their senior year. Which means that when MIT goes to make an admissions decision, then they just do not have the bulk of the scores. It is not uncommon to see a student who takes 1 AP class in Sophomore year, 2 in junior year, and 5 in senior year. If MIT were to consider scores, then they would only see 3/8ths of the scores. Feh… That tells MIT more about the high school than about the applicant.
