<p>I know in July.
But does someone know the exact date?</p>
<p>depends on where u live…</p>
<p>when is it for MA?</p>
<p>second week of july usually for NE states.
third week of july for SE states
first week of july for W states
first-second week of july for Middle States</p>
<p>Question: What does the paper that has our grade actually look like? What does it say? Does it just say that you got a 3 or something? Also, how do we know they didn’t send us the wrong paper? I took AP Human and it was my first AP Exam.</p>
<p>early_college - I threw mine away when I cleaned my room a few weeks ago, otherwise I’d show it to you. It has your name, address, and other information on it. It keps a running log of all APs you’ve taken. There’ll be a list on the paper. It’ll say “AP Human Geography” on the left and whatever number grade you got on the right.</p>
<p>Thanks! It was my 1st AP and I’m so nervous to what I got. I am hoping for a 3 or 4 and then next year show that I can improve my scores. I got a 80 and 82 without the 10 points in the class overall. He said I prob. get a 2 or 3, I hope I did good.</p>
<p>Colleges really don’t use AP exam scores for admissions, so don’t worry so much.</p>
<p>Last year I got my scores the 28th of june. But all my other friends got there’s in July. So idk when Ill get mine this year. lol</p>
<p>where do you live bananapop</p>
<p>wait, where is collegeboard sending them from, specifically? their headquarters in new york? or somewhere else?</p>
<p>I live down south, but idk where they are sending them from.</p>
<p>If I may differ from Keasby Nights suggestion that APs don’t matter in admissions: they do. College use APs for admissions in two ways:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>college look at the rigor of your course load; if your school offers APs but you don’t take them, you look a bit light weight. </p></li>
<li><p>Colleges like to admit students who they know can handle college level material. What better indicator then scoring well on college level material while still in high school.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Olin engineering and Memorial both rearrange there curriculum assuming that all students would come in the door with AP Calc, AP Physics and AP Chem. Its just a given. </p>
<p>UC “recommends” 17 contact hours of AP level classes; if your transcript does not show APs then you are not competitive. The average Stanford applicant has between 5 and 6 AP exam credits on his application. </p>
<p>Remember, college applications are based on Junior year classes, grades and exams. </p>
<p>They matter, if your school offers them.</p>
<p>Having AP classes matters. However, schools tend not to look at the exam grades as much as one would think. Please read my post next time.</p>
<p>I take the hardest classes, all honors and one AP. I’m taking the same next year, I was going to take 2 AP’s but I didn’t have a foreign language. I’m just worried if I got a 2, will that hurt me? I want to get in college’s like USC, NYU or some liberal arts schools like Sarah Lawrence. Thanks and I don’t’ know why I’m so worried, but everyone in my class was gifted and I wasn’t.</p>
<p>PS: I will have about 6 AP classes the time I graduate high school. I don’t want to take too many and all in Social Studies and LA. I could take AP Physics, but I usually get a B in Honors Science courses and why should I take a class I wouldn’t do good in? I plan on majoring in print journalism, screenwriting or maybe acting. I have never taken an CP class.</p>
<p>Getting a 2 on an AP test does NOT kill you. I know this is just one case, but a girl from my school got a 2 on AP Physics, reported it, and still got into Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Cornell, and a lot of other top schools.</p>
<p>I edited my post to let you guys know more info. But im concerned because AP Human is suppose to be the “easy” AP. I am def. not wanting to go to Harvard. I think Northwestern or maybe Yale would be the highest I would go. But I just have a 3.2ish GPA now and I got two 72’s on my transcript from math and I have an 83 and 84 on it too. I just didn’t have a good freshman year, but I want to turn it around next year.</p>
<p>Well just so you have a realistic idea, I would say that both Yale and Northwestern in the grand scheme of things are pretty much on the same level as Harvard.</p>
<p>i took my first AP this year- World History…the nerves are starting to get to me. I hope I get a 3 or 4 :(</p>
<p>I know Yale is, but I think Northwestern is a lil worse. I have two years a head of me, why will they not be able to see past a 2 on a AP test or a couple bad grades.</p>
