AP Score Distribution?

Question

I just got my AP European score back...I got a 3 :D but during test taking day, i was undecided on which college i should send my scores to and just put RCC, but i'm not planning on going there, so what do i do to send it, but i don't even know to where yet (I'M INCOMMING JUNIOR)...also is it really necessary? Don't colleges automatically get all your info. prior to your acceptance??? I dunno any knowledgable help would be great! Thanks

Answer 1

You will send colleges an AP score report with your application. If you send them now, they will not use them for anything, they will just send you a pamphlet about their college because they know you are interested. However, you can obtain these pamphlets for free at their websites so there is no point wasting your money to send them an AP report. They use your AP score mostly for course placement, and not so much for admission (the grade you received in the class is much more important). To pass out of most classes, a 4 or 5 is needed.
