[quote=Anonymous]My DD got into a few T20s with several 4's. DC also was salutatorian and got a 35 on the ACT. Her school offered several APs but few teachers really focused on actual test prep. I think AP scores become important if it's harder to determine the relative value of the student's GPA/grades (because the student attends a lesser known high school) or where an applicant is test optional or had a lower SAT/ACT score. For example, if an applicant had a great GPA but a 31 ACT, I think most T20s would be inclined overlook the lower ACT score if the applicant submitted ten 5's on AP exams. But if the applicant already has a great GPA and SAT/ACT scores, AP results aren't likely to move the needle that much. Anyhow, of all the conundrums in the application process, I don't think this one is difficult or even nuanced: Submit all 4s and 5s. [/quote]
