Don't worry about it. If they don't want you, they don't deserve you as a student.
This might be the same bs that they tell us, but a lot of times they legitimately can't take people who they think would be a good fit.
On the other hand, UC Berkeley somehow admitted me with Regents Nomination so tbfh this system is a bit of a crapshoot.

Hey! There's this Google folder of AP Exam prep guides from Carmel High School, and it'd be nice if it could benefit the SciOly community somehow, since many Div C peeps are taking AP Exams.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sciX0uNnzI


Random comments about this folder:
  • These study guides are for AP Exams and not AP Courses, so your teachers may have different expectations, especially since some guides are focused towards Carmel teachers.
  • Folders with an asterisk (*) have neither notes nor exam prep, and only contain general resources. Sorry! :(
  • AP Histories study guide (for all four history exams) is by request only. Fortunately, a handful of general resources are freely available.
  • Study guides come from a variety of authors and across the Internet, but feedback about the guides is always appreciated at the "Rate my tests" link in my signature.
It's hard to say what will happen to AP Exams if the COVID-19 epidemic persists. The CollegeBoard has been known to push back AP Exams for students and schools who miss both the regular testing and late testing date, but it's anybody's guess what they'll do about the entire United States.

Really? Considering you can kinda just post whatever you want and talk about it, I'd say so...

I guess the pattern now is more post something and others will discuss it. It does a lot for collecting all the unintentional spam that might have ended up elsewhere without needing you to create a new topic to talk about something you noticed.
