Score Release Dates 

Scores are set to release starting around July 6th and will continue to release in batches the following days.  

Choose whether to send your results 

Now that your AP test has concluded, you now have the choice to send your test results to schools or keep them. If you achieve a score of 3 or higher, you may be eligible for a college credit depending on the school. However, if you fall under that threshold, you may be better off holding out on sending your score.  

Time to relax 

You just completed one of the most rigorous tests of your high school career, whether this is your first, second or whatever number AP test of your high school career – you deserve a break. Don’t stress over your scores, they are very far away, and it should be in the back of your mind at this point. Not only that, but it’s important to keep in mind these scores don’t define you or your academics overall. One bad test won’t stand over all your work over your high school career and remember; you have the autonomy to decide whether to release your scores or not.
