My DC took 3 but did retake 2 of them. Score choice is allowed unless the school asks for all testing (a few did this).

First one at end of AP US History in 10th grade. June test date.

Other 2 at the end of 11th grade, May or June test date.


Which asked for all testing?


Not PP, but Stanford and Yale are among schools that want all test scores.



Unfortunately, I can already tell you my DD can't get into Stanford.
Don't sweat. My DD has all the qualifications and probably wouldn't be admitted or as they say 'straight As and 2400 SAT are a dime a dozen.' Has taken math, chem, and Chinese subject tests and shooting for Tufts.

DD took 4. Two of her colleges wanted three and she thought she would take the fourth just for back up in case she tanked one of them.

I was just thinking the same thing. My DC is in 10th and I wish I could wipe away all this upcoming stress for them and take a long vacation.

I don't remember specifically. U Penn was one I think. It was 3 of the 11 schools DC applied to.
