This is such a huge accomplishment and I hope your DD tooted her own horn on her social media. I've seen plenty of teens posting about their AP scores as they should.
Shame and disappointment are normal emotions and should be felt to learn how to deal with them.
What’s more sad is that we are a society full of racists who use every opportunity to criticize “inclusion and equity” efforts.
Congrats on your kid’s 5, OP. But it’s not like she cured cancer.

My daughter is a great kid, and a good student. Absolutely positively not top college material, and we are all ok with that - she will be fine wherever she goes. Not a great test taker - eh scores on her PSAT and ACT.
But today she found out she got a 5 on her AP language and comp exam!
This really just made my heart sing. She is over the moon. I’m so proud!
Similar situation here--my sophomore daughter is just an okay test-taker and got 5's on both APUSH and AP Psych exams. So proud of her!
