People seriously got up at 4:30 for this? Relax.[/quote]

I got up at 2am on the West Coast. For us it is very strongly linked to applications to the UK where the AP result is taken as the equivalent of an A level. Without them, no offers.[/quote]

Curious, is a 3 viewed as bad or good?[/quote]

Cambridge only accepts 5s, and requires 5 of them.
But they make tentative offers confirmed by senior year exams. [/quote]

It really depends on the college.  US Universities use them for credit and that's it.  If you look at a school like Towson, they accept many 3s for credit

Yes, Cambridge is using the scores for a completely different purpose than U.S. universities. For the UK schools, it is used as a substitute for the UK tests kids take for admissions (A-levels). In the US, it is mostly used to opt out of required core college courses freshman year. The UK schools don't have the kind of broad core first year of college that most U.S. schools have.[/quote]
