Hey guys! This year was my first time taking AP exams and I'm kind of stressed about when the scores come out. Does anyone know around when they're usually released?
AP scores are typically released by the College Board in early July. The exact date can vary each year, and even within the same year, the release dates can vary by geographic location. Once released, you might find that your scores become available at different times in the day, depending on the amount of test-takers and the specific AP exams you took.
Remember that while AP scores can be important, they generally have less of an impact on your college applications than your course grades or the rigor of your course load. They are often used more for college credit or determining course placement once you are admitted to a college, rather than as a factor in admissions decisions. It's normal to feel anxious about your results, but remember that in the larger scheme of things, they're only a small piece of the puzzle. Good luck, and I hope your scores reflect your hard work!
