[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you cancel a score, the official AP score report will state that the test score was cancelled by student.  So the college will know you took the AP exam but chose to cancel the score. [/quote]

I don’t think that’s right for the score report the colleges see. Once cancelled, it’s permanently removed from CB records. But if you used the free score report, you need to cancel it before a set date.  [/quote]

The colleges see the full score report and it will indicate score cancelled by student (without showing the score) whether or not student cancelled the test before or after the score release date. So the college will know the kid took the exam. For Stanford and MIT that require ALL AP test scores, kids should report them all even if they cancelled the score and it no longer appears on their test record.[/quote]

Do you have a citation? How does your theory square with this statement by the College Board?

“The Student Datafile and Student Score Report both contain the full AP Exam taking history for a student across multiple exam administrations. If a score is delayed or canceled, the student exam record in these two reports will include any event codes and event descriptions indicating either a delay or cancellation. All other reports only include scores that have been released, that is, not delayed or canceled.”[/quote]
