[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The common app, which is what almost all universities use, will allow you to self report AP scores and you can report all, none, or your own self-selected set.  If you don't report, then they won't know whether you took it or not.

There's a lot of discussion in the college board about what scores people should report.  Suffice it to say, you probably won't self-report below 3.  Beyond that, there's a lot of nuance it's not worth going into.

Once enrolled, you can send the official score report to the school you are attending (for credit/placement purposes) but you don't need to send that to all schools you apply to.[/quote]
College admissions offices see that your kid took an AP class. They also see if they don't report an AP score for that class. Colleges admission offices actually see a lot and aren't stupid; they may be "test blind" but they're not blind.[/quote]
False.  From what I saw this last admissions cycle, there were many kids that went fully test optional and got into very selective schools.  Annoying to see kids with awful SAT + AP scores and similar grades etc, that got into "better" schools that the kids that studied hard for the tests and did well. This is unfortunately the state of test-optional admissions. [/quote]
