no recommendation<\/strong> for college credit<\/ul>\n
\nfor most, a score of 3 or above is sufficient for college credit and placement. more competitive colleges may only give credit for a 4 or higher. since every college or university is different, we highly recommend that you research your institution for the most up-to-date ap credit policy information.<\/a><\/p>\n
after you take your exam, your apush score is sent to whichever college or university you indicated on your answer sheet. unless you request certain exam scores to be withheld, ap scores from every ap exam you have ever taken will be forwarded to the college of your choice.
\n
\ndid you know it is possible to earn ap awards for good apush scores? ap scholar awards<\/a> are available to students who demonstrate significant academic achievement on their ap exams. recipients can view and print their certificate online. sorry, there is no monetary prize that accompanies the award \ud83d\ude41 however, your award is featured on your ap score report, which means colleges and universities can see your accomplishment!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
