My kid also just received a very disappointing 2 on his AP Calc.

My question is, can he send some scores but not others to colleges? Apart from this one, all his other scores are 5s.

The College Board website says we're too late for withholding or canceling this score - the deadline was June 15th, but he didn't have his score then.

Is your child entering college in Fall 2022?  If so, you are too late... the scores are sent.  If not, you are not too late. It's whenever the kid is going off to school.

PP you replied to. Thanks! DS is fall '23, and wants to send AP scores to his preferred schools for the Early Action deadline of Nov 1st.

Just want to update everyone. I called the College Board.

Withholding:
The June 15th deadline is for students who elected to send scores for free. It's $10 per score per institution. For others, there's an added $15 standard or $25 rush "delivery fee" (really grasping at money, these guys). Which makes it $25 or $35 per score per institution. Respectively one or two week processing from reception of mailed request.

Cancellation:
Same June 15 deadline as above for students who chose free reporting. Free of charge. Permanent deletion of scores, you can't ever bring them back. Two week processing from the moment they get your mailed request.

DS did not pick free reporting, so it sounds like we're canceling!

PP - I made this call a few years ago because it is confusing. You don't need to cancel - you just don't "pay" to send that test result to colleges.

As you said, as long as you did not choose to send scores for free when taking the test, the June 15th deadline doesn't apply to you.

Our DC took exams in Soph and Junior year and did not choose the "free send" option.  We were told we can pick and choose which scores to send and where to send them. It just means we need to pay to send the scores.[/quote]
