Do we need to have our AP scores sent to schools just like SAT I and SAT II?

So should I just have the College Board send them?

I got a 5 on US His, 5 on Eng Comp, 3 on Chem, and a 2 on Span.

Absolutely.

No, many colleges say you can wait until you are admitted. Check with the individual admissions committees.

I don't think there's a point to wasting all that money until you're accepted. Just make sure your secondary school report includes your AP scores and you should be fine. It's not like they will reward credit on the spot with your acceptance; you have to ask for it later on when you have decided to matriculate.

I know that, but some schools like to see it for the admissions process....

Does anyone know- If someone sends in their AP scores to a college, and three weeks later receives a certificate that they are an AP scholar with distinction-Will that designation be sent to the college as well? Thanks.

I wouldn't send them in until I knew for sure they'd help.
