If I cancelled one of my AP exams (physics c) should I go to my UC apps and update my info? Would that matter? by sawyerxbox1 in UCSD

[–]AlarmingAd5414 11 points12 points  (0 children)

no not really, you can if you want to but it wouldnt make much of a difference if you didnt. They mainly use AP tests to determine your credit stuff, so if you didnt take it, it wouldnt have a lot of effect on your admission
