[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain how the AP exams work, what is their purpose and advantage to the student if the score is not counted towards the GPA? [b]Do colleges care?[/b][/quote] Some do, some give college credit if you pass with a certain score determined by the college.[/quote] And some use it to place you out of intro level classes or required core classes, so although you don't get credit, you et into the classes you want to take for you major faster. This is especially useful for colleges that have a large number of 'core' course requirements. Also, for the small number of students applying to UK schools, Oxford requires 5s on 3 AP exams for admission and Cambridge requires 5s on 5 AP exams, both expect some/most those to be related to the subject matter the student intends to study.[/quote]
