Hello,
I am a senior student pursuing in Computer Science who has received decisions from universities based in the United States. On all application forms ( common ap , UC etc…) I’ve stated that i will be taking 6 AP Tests : Calc AB , Physics C Mech , Computer science A ,Macroeconomics ,Chemistry , and English Language and composition. Although my preparation for all subjects are going well and have registered for all 6, i want to relieve the stress and opt out of Computer Science A. I would like to know if it is advisable , would it affect the decisions I’ve received , and is it still possible at this date (up to a week from now)
Thank You
Are you an international student?
I would ask in the “Ask a Dean” section

The point of AP exams is to receive AP credit in college. Are you planning on majoring in computer science? Do any of your universities and colleges grant AP credit for AP Computer Science A? If you’re not going to get credit or take a computer science class in college, I would say opt out because your other exams have more weight in college courses.
