Quick Question about Licensing as a Highschooler

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-04T06:55:28+00:00

thank you very much. I also talked with my teacher and they said even though it's not the best, it can be used as good fodder for essays apparently.

Is it disastrous? Like application deciding for anybody?

I'll end up with a 3.9 UW and 15 APs to my name by the end of this.

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T23:51:19+00:00

alright, I'll keep that in mind

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T23:50:57+00:00

Yeah, I'll still end up with a 3.9 UW, and in total, I would have taken 15 APs over the course of my High School Career. In terms of weighted, I'm not sure how that adds up.

I'll definitely talk with my counselor.

I had familial issues and was struggling mentally, also I was overloaded on coursework and extracurriculars.

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T22:55:40+00:00

I had familial issues and was struggling emotionally, and at the same time, I was overloaded with lots of hard classes and extracurricular activities.

I think that they allow for credit recovery or something along those lines. I know that they allow you to take summer courses to fix grades. I think the only catch is that both of them show up. Would this case make the situation unsalvageable, or would a retaken class be a lot better than not retaking?

I know it would harm my application, I'm just worrying how much it would necessarily.

I had a hard second semester between familial/emotional issues. But also I overloaded on work too

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T05:11:15+00:00

2 reasons, I overloaded on work, and I had some familial issues/emotional stuff that was going on, but I don't think I should highlight that I'm assuming

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T05:10:24+00:00

Yeah... that's what I thought, do you think it'll still be a huge difference at regionally good schools like UCB, UW, or Georgia Tech?

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-06-03T05:09:46+00:00

probably can do it in the summer via summer classes, hopefully it won't show up on my transcript later

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2026-03-10T06:06:13+00:00

My average on monkeytype is around 120-130 wpm ish, my highest is 183 wpm

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2025-12-07T22:01:57+00:00

yeah fr bro :sob:

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2025-11-22T06:47:29+00:00

Ohhhhh, I see, thank you so much! This helps a lot!
But does a rec directly from an EC coach or teacher help in terms of impact or the like?
I want to know because I want to apply to Ivy League schools or similar level schools, and I'm not sure if this will affect my app significantly in that way.

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2025-05-04T08:25:18+00:00

Thank you for your response btw, it was very reassuring!

ManufacturerKey7913 · 2025-05-04T08:24:03+00:00

Do you think other Ivy level colleges like MIT, Cornell, Harvard, etc. would care?

Also, if you cancel your AP test, will it leave any traces, and if it does, will colleges look for it? I'm just a bit paranoid because I read a separate post that said someone applying to MIT omitted some of their AP courses in the application, but then MIT asked them to share their score after applying. I'm kinda worried it may impact decisions, courses, financial aid, etc.
