[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, so for those of you who, like me, think AP scores are a relevant data point for AO to consider, what do you do if your DC has a mix of 4s and 5s and is shooting for T20-T30 schools? Seems like submitting only the 5s would raise more questions, but the comment about the 4s potentially being a negative in an otherwise strong application give me pause.[/quote] I would submit them all with limited exceptions. I think the advice on not submitting 4s is pretty limited - it might apply to the MIT applicant with a 4 in their area of interest. But they should still submit that 4 in English Lang. For most schools, 4s are great.[/quote] Yes, I think that's very true. So far my kid has 5s in History and English APs, except a 4 in AP Gov and a 3 in AP comp sci. He will submit all because his focus is Humanities, and his only 4 in that field was in 9th grade, when the pandemic started. [/quote]
