Should I self report a 3 on my Common App

will schools possibly be inclined to think that I am trying to conceal a lower score such as a 2 or a 1?

Possibly. But I don’t think omitting one is that big of a deal. Particularly if the HS does not require students to take the AP exam, some students opt not to take the exam for many reasons… Now, if your transcript showed that you took 6 AP classes and you only reported two scores, an AO may very well think that you are hiding something. It is not unknown for an AO to contact the GC for clarification. But one score? I would not worry about it.
