APExam Score
Answered

Is it possible to withdraw a score after it already being sent to a college? I bombed one of my AP Exams snd the other one I got a 3. If not possible what should I do about it cause I feel hella embarrassed 💀 for once. This was my first year with APs as well.

Hey, I'm not really sure that you can withdraw a score but I think that you don't need to be worried. You can improve yourself next year and get a higher score which would be great for your applications:)

You can follow these directions to withhold your AP exam score from a college. Even if you do not go through with the withhold process, you do not need to worry! Colleges only really care about AP exam scores if you are looking to count them for college credit - if not, they will focus on your grade in the class. Hope this helps!

So like you know how you can send colleges your scores for free before you actually see the score? Thats what I did😭 lol so i can still withold it although they're sent? Do other colleges get to see that info as well? This helped a lot by the way

You still can withhold your scores. I believe that colleges have to log into an online portal to view your scores, so your withhold request will remove the score from there. Colleges will not check this portal until you apply, so you should be set if you withhold now. One thing to look into is the deadline for withhold requests - the website says June 15th, but try calling/chatting with the CollegeBoard to see if they can still do anything. Glad you found it helpful!

As a general rule, the score will be sent to the college, but they won't look at it unless it is superb and they want to make note of it. Otherwise, it is difficult to withdraw it, but it rly doesn't matter that much.
