<p>im taking 6 ap tests and i seriously plan to take a pillow with me and sleep as soon as the tests start.
of course ill get all 1’s
but i heard i have to bring ap test scores with me for the summer orientation thing
so im worried theyll revoke my admission
is it ok if i get like 4 2s and 2 3s on the ap tests?</p>

<p>the ap tests don’t matter at all. you’ll just have to take 15 credits every semester.</p>

<p>lol - I did the same thing. AP scores do not matter. I got 5 1’s my senior year…and I was my class’s valedictorian. In all likelihood, they’ll never even find out.</p>

<p>^-u r amazing. i dont understand how anyone can be valedictorian</p>

<p>It’s not a big deal. Just don’t get anything lower than an A and take lots of AP classes! lol. But yea, if you’re going to slack your senior year, slacking on AP’s doesn’t really hurt you.</p>

<p>Are you already doing badly in these classes?</p>

<p>5 1’s…nice!! tell our valedictorian that and i think she’d have a coronary and keel over dead.</p>

<p>I don’t plan on studying for my exams, except a little bit for french because i really don’t want to have to take that anymore, although i can’t really figure out how i’m supposed to study for that. I’ll BS the questions though, instead of not answering them,(I’ve actually found the point and choose method quite effective recently) so I’m expecting to pass at least some. :slight_smile: it would be nice to have some more credit i guess. Anyhow, I seriously doubt getting bad APs will hurt you at all. It seems like if anything it would make someone laugh ?</p>

<p>Your val must be a massive tool.</p>

<p>Perhaps, just it seems somewhat stupid to spend an entire year working learning something, and be able to get a good amount of credits for just an extra couple of hours of work. At least that’s my opinion.</p>

<p>Maybe. I was in a unique situation, though - I didn’t need the credits and I didn’t need to test out of distribution requirements. Oh well. I’m pretty lazy, though, and I didn’t see the work that I did in those classes as being worth much, anyway.</p>

<p>“Your val must be a massive tool.”</p>

<p>No? Just because the val of the school would like to do very well on exams that she spent a year studying for doesn’t mean she’s a tool… in fact, getting 5 scores of one in a row is relatively odd for a valedictorian, and demonstrates that maybe your school was not the most serious of things when it came to exams if you think that’s an acceptable practice under almost any circumstance in your county (it’s only a couple of hours of minimal effort to get at least a 2, generally a 3). That’s the kind of thing that the very lax and non-motivated people in my high school would do, but anyone else taking an AP or IB exam wouldn’t even consider for a second.</p>

<p>By the end of my senior year in HS, I didn’t care about anything. I didn’t need to prove anything to anybody. I didn’t need AP credits and I didn’t need placement credit. I didn’t feel like my hard work, intelligence or ego would be validated in any way by getting 5’s on a handful of tests that were on barely college level material. Oh well.</p>

<p>not a tool, just very…nonreceptive…to failure. they’re right, its nice to get the credits. Luckily for me i have exams i don’t really have to worry about and then some i don’t even get any credit for at all (lame) and stuff. I would think that it would be hard to get a 1 on an exam unless it was a very hard one or you absolutley didn’t do it. either which way, whatever people do at exam time should only matter to them, and maybe their parents if they have to pay for their exams ;)</p>

<p>It’s not failure if you don’t try in the first place. Oh, and my school paid for them in some stupid move to move up in some ranking published by the Washington Post. Heh, I actually read some cool magazine articles during my exams…I remember one about world’s worst jobs, lol.</p>

<p>Anybody who sits through an exam and gets multiple 1’s when he/she is perfectly capable of doing better is really insensitive… while it may not affect you it affects your teacher’s teaching credentials/resume and those scores follow the teacher for the rest of his/her career. If you feel like slacking off at teh end of your senior year, don’t take the ap exams.</p>

<p>Lol alright.</p>
