[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You'll get plenty of people on here who claim AP scores are not considered during admissions. Sorry, but an admissions officer who knows grades are inflated and can't easily be compared between one school system and another will be interested to find that "top" student A earned 5 out of 5 on their AP exams, and "top" student B earned 3. [b]Same principle for SAT, ACT and IB scores. [/b]They all cut across the gpa noise and provide a national basis of comparison. At similar gpa, it really shows you which school inflates grades and which school doesn't. [/quote] I thought colleges were well-aware that high SATs scores correlate with high incomes, so are not necessarily indicative of aptitude.[/quote]
