[quote=Anonymous]Yes, they care. Taking the class tells them you're ambitious with your education, which is good. The score tells them about the rigor of the course and how well you learn material at a fast pace and high level of expectation. That's even more important. Hopefully this won't be the deciding factor in whether to take the course, though. If a kid is getting a C in a class and practice AP Test scores that indicate they're likely to get a 3 on the exam, but they're loving the course and feeling empowered, they should stick with it. They're getting a C in a college-level course that's taught at a level that many very selective schools are willing to give credit for. That's really good for a high school student and will make them a stronger student when they get to college, wherever that may end up being.[/quote]
