Hi, @srjw28 so AP Test scores don't affect your admissions but you must do well on the exams as they can count for college credit which in the long term can help you to your advantage. Good Luck!!!

Actually, scoring well on AP exams can be helpful for college applications because it demonstrates that you can not only participate in college level classes, but thrive in them. If you have a substantial number of 5’s on your exams that is something you can put on your application that could give you a leg up on other applicants who took AP’s but didn’t put their scores.
