AP Exam scores

Hello guys!

So I've been preparing my sophomore year course list, and that includes a few AP courses. However, I'm nervous for the AP Exams in May this upcoming year. What is a "good" score to get? And as far as submitting these scores goes, do I have to submit all AP Exam scores when I apply to college? If I don't, what scores should I be submitting?

Thank you!!

To pass an AP exam you need to get a score of 3. All community college accept this score and most public schools too. A score of 4 is accepted by all public schools and most private schools. However, a score of 5, which is the highest score you can get in an AP exam is usually required for Ivy League schools to get the college credit. It might vary from school to school, but you don’t have to submit a score if you don’t want to. So, it just depends on the school that you’re applying if you put in a score or not.
