[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]kid goy 4 in spanish and comp a and 5 in gov and not happy[/quote]

Is a 4 considered bad? Should DC not list it on his colleges apps?[/quote]

Absolutely list 4s and 5s.[/quote]

4 have to be listed, they are very good but 5s are better, my kid has three 4s and one 5 and wanted top 20 so not sure that is now doable..and now demoralized and will have tougher time prepping for the SAT, this is the ugly part of perfectionism, not sure what i can tell them to cheer them up[/quote]

You are getting bad info.  I have two kids at T10 ,(one last year and one this year). Neither of them listed their AP scores.  DC1 never got any 5s and DC 2 only received 5s on exams taken senior year.  Focus on SAT!!![/quote]

thanks! should my kid report the three 4s and one 5 to t20? or should they not report them , and only report to school like uva and vtech? 4s are really tricky[/quote]

If you want the school to see the 5, then you should also report the 4s. Fours are not bad scores. If you do not list 4s, the "common wisdom" is that schools will interpolate that the missing scores were worse. Your child will receive the "AP Scholar with Honor" award, which can be listed in the awards section if you are not comfortable listing each individual score. However, that award is granted to students receiving a average of at least 3.25 on all exams and 3 or higher on 4 exams. In your situation, the award underrepresents the performance.  [/quote]
