I finally recieved my AP Test results, and they are as follows:
Comp Sci A: 4
Eng Lit/Comp: 2
Calculus AB: 3
Music Theory: 3
Physics B: 5
I'm none too happy about english, but I'm proud of that physics grade. Please post your AP/IB Test Scores here (obviously only if you took AP/IB Tests and are willing to divulge to the 8-bit community).

I took the World History AP test, and I got a 3! Yeah!

Considering how much I studied, I should've gotten a 2, but I guess I'm smarter/luckier than I give myself credit for.

Zakanf-good job on your tests! And don't fret about the English test, your scores in the other tests more than make up for it (in my book, at least).

I took the American History AP test and got a three on it. Pretty amazing, considering I completely choked on it and didn't write one of the essays. But three's average, right?

What sucks is how I found out: my college sent a letter telling me that my score wasn't enough to get the credit.

But anyway, congrats on both of you guys' test.

What kinda wackjob takes more than three AP classes!? Really, only take those things if that particular subject is something you enjoy and/or are good at it. That said:

AP Calculus - 5
AP Physics (Mech) - 5
AP Physics (E&M) - 5

I'm only the second person in the school's history to get a 5 in both Physics test. If they offered the CompSci one, I would've gotten a 5 in that too. Heh, leave it up to me to ace those test, then pick a college that won't accept them as course credits...

Well, the only reason I took AP Eng. Lit & Comp. is because at my high school, the AP class was actually the easy route. Regular and Honors english required more actual work.

Hmm... note that last year I was of the mortal folk (read: sophomore)

Computer Science A- 4
European History- 3

Don't know what happened in Euro, but I was surprised about the programming, because I ended up with a C for the year. BLARG!

Next year I've got 5 classes. Assuming that I don't change my schedule, and there are no conflicts with the most important subject ever- Jazz Band.

US History - 5

Last year I took European History and got a 5 in that too.

BC calc - 4
AB subcore - 5

Physics C (Mech + EM) - 3

I didn't expect to get a 4 in physics, but luckily for me a 3 counts anyway. I wish I could have gotten a 5 in BC, but a 4 is pretty good considering I didn't take the class, lol. There were 2 of us in my calc AB class that taught ourselves BC for the heck of it, haha. I know he lurks around these forums somewhere, but I know not what name he goes by...

Lets see, from the past two years...

English Language: 4
US History: 4
Music Theory: 5
Calc AB: 3
Calc BC: 2

You can see where my weekness is.

I would ask you how you got a five in music theory, but my teacher got cancer about 1/4 of the way through the year, so we didn't have a teacher for 3/4's of the year, and I still passed, so I am to assume, that had I had an actual teacher for the rest of the year, I should have had a higher grade.

We had the absolute BEST music theory class ever. Our teacher was one of the most sarcastic and cynically funny ever, and with the amount of musical geniuses in that class, we spent half the time fooling around. Then random ass stuff would happen like pigeons flying through the door, but somehow through all of this we learned a crapload. There were people who didn't do as well, but I simply learned three main points: no parallel fifths, no parallel octives, and no augmented seconds, then applied my already encyclopedic knowledge of classical music to work. I've also taken courses in how to listen analytically to music before hand, and am just an over all music nerd.

I took the World History AP, got a 4
I was very surprised, since my essays were only about half as long as everyone else's and I finished about an hour early... I was worried I wouldn't even get a 3.

Eng Lit & Comp: despite the part where I felt like stabbing my self with my nicely-sharpened #2 pencils after reading one of the more hideous prompts, I managed to get a 4. I'd elaborate, but I don't want to get sued by the AP pplz... paranoid bastards...

Anyone else it funny that, to paraphrase, "YOU ARE TO NEVER EVER EVER EVER UPON PAIN OR DEATH TALK ABOUT THE AP TEST OR WE'LL SHOOT-I-MEAN-SUE YOU." part that was read before each segment?

Almost took the CS one, but after finding out that I had only learned about 40% of what would be on the test (bad curriculum at my school...ARGH!) and that I could take one of my CS classes as dual-credit instead, I opted for the dual-credit.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I read "or forfit your immortal soul" in the contract somewhere.

No, they never said that. They said if you discuss the Multiple Choice section very, very bad things will happen to your family...all the way down to your children's children's children's children.

As a junior,
AP Chem-5
AP Cal AB-5
Senior year took everything dual credit, so didn't worry about any AP tests. Gotta love getting a 4.0 on ten days of attendence a semester.
