[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is what Sara Harberson has to say (former AO at Penn and dean of admissions at F&M, iirc): “If you are applying to highly selective colleges, they like to see 5s on AP exams. Getting a 4 is okay in their eyes, but I have been part of admissions committees where the student gets a 4, especially in a subject matter they plan to pursue, and that's enough of a reason for that student to be denied.” I assume this was likely from her days at Penn.[/quote] You know what? I don't believe her. I truly don't believe that a "4" on an AP exam, standing alone (as she appears to be suggesting) will close the door on admissions to any college in the US. Including Penn.[/quote]
