Each AP Exam grade is a weighted combination of the student's score on the multiple choice section and on the free-response section. The final grade is reported on a 5-point scale:
5 = extremely well qualified
4 = well qualified
3 = qualified
2 = possibly qualified
1 = no recommendation
The results of the AP Examination will be sent to candidates, their secondary schools, and the colleges they select in mid July. Most colleges award college credit for a 3, 4, or 5. However, college and university policies regarding AP credit are not consistent. All students seeking college credit through AP are advised to obtain the college's AP policy in writing. Questions that need to be addressed include: what placement, exemption , and credit are granted for satisfactory performance on an AP Exam? What minimum AP Exam grade qualifies for this treatment? Is there any other requirement to receive credit and/or placement?

So, based on past experience...if we're making a B in your class, statistically, should we pass the exam?
ReplyDeleteI was wait listed by one school. If mid-summer a spot opens up and I go to that school instead of the one I plan to send the scores to, is there a way to change what school gets my scores or do I just have to resend?
