  1. OP here. Thank you for the guidance. We have been working through the common app together and sometimes we need quick questions/ clarifications. I will try sending emails if they are counselor questions and will encourage DD (who is also not the best when it comes to communicating by phone calls) to make scripts for her questions. Regards.
  2. Hello. Quick question for parents with more experience since we are first timers for college admission. Do the counselors deal with the students directly or can parents call/email with questions. I know at our Comm College where DD17 does DE, they college does not communicate with us much. Should I be pushing the kiddo (who is overwhelmed with classes and ACT) to call with questions? Many thanks and appreciate what a wonderful resource the college board at WTM forums has been for us. Regards, Ann
  3. Any experiences/ reviews for Potter's school AP French or any other good AP French programs. Can't find many. Thank you.
  4. Does anyone have experience with Susan Spivey's classes at AIM academy? American or British Literature. DS16 is not interested in any APs but would like to explore these genres further. Please let me know if you have any positive or negative experiences or advice. Feel free to PM, if easier. Thank you for your time.
  5. July 18th ACT cancelled Maryland We got an email saying our test center is closed. Website does not show any alternate test centers. So I guess we will wait for September testing. My rising senior does not have any standardized testing results due to these cancellations though we do have some outside validation with CC classes and APs. . What is the last test date that could still work for college admissions for Fall 2021 College year. freaking out already. Regards.
  6. I am glad I found this discussion. I really needed to know that there a cohort of homeschooling moms stressing about this and I am not alone. My junior DD was well prepared for April test and has been able to get back in preparation mode again but I wish ACT would make these decisions earlier. The school system that we will test in had listed on their website that there will be no ACT testing in June weeks ago but ACT has not contacted us. It is tough for us to get the test prep drive going without knowing if the test will happen. At least The SAT subject test clarity from SAT was helpful (no tests all summer) and we don't have to keep prepping for those all summer. I wish ACT could be more responsible. Hugs to all the kids in this tough situation.
  7. Thank you. I was able to register using my PC. May have been a Safari issue/ settings on my Mac. Appreciate your help.
  8. Hello. Wondering if anyone has been able to register for May and June 2020 Subject tests. There is a register tab next to the dates but it does not lead to a registration page. is it too early to register? Of course, it would make sense to not have a tab if that is the case but I have given up on College board. Thank you. Regards.
  9. Time Left: 3 days and 11 hours

  10. Happened to us too today. My DD got her APES score too (4 here )but not Comp Govt and Politics. We did also take the two tests at different schools so wonder if they missed any documentation at the second center. She did use the same AP number and sticker as the first exam. This is our first time taking AP so can't give any advice but I do feel your frustration. I could not get through to College Board today. Will try again tomorrow. Congrats to your daughter.
  11. Hello. DDs Comp Govt result is delayed- code 86. To be posted as soon as available. Any experience with that? How long are these delays? A few hours or days/ weeks? Do we check periodically or will we be notified. Thanks.
  12. Thank you all for the advice. I have been printing grade sheets, final exams and work samples in each subject for the state reviews. Had not thought about the syllabus so thank you for pointing that out. I guess I will worry about other things for now :-) Regards.
  13. Hello. I am trying to get an idea of how much work everyone prints and saves from High school online classes. We have been doing state portfolio reviews twice a year so I have Grade sheets, one or two of the best assignments or essays and any final exams printed and saved for the portfolio usually. Do we need more for college? I will have the transcript and course descriptions but could we get asked for actual work samples and if so, would the above be enough? There is so much to print in the online classes and they are not easily formatted for printing so I just want to avoid unnecessary printing. Thank you for sharing your experience. Warmest regards.
  14. Thank you. I think I will wait till after the grading is done and get it changed. We don't want to be in a situation in the future where because of this inaccuracy, it is thought that DD was in the public school and not homeschooled. And I am concerned about data privacy. Thank you for sharing your experience.
  15. Hi Arcadia. Do we need to make this correction? My DD did the same thing- used the school code because the school insisted that she had to. I even sent a copy of the page with the codes 😞. The school AP coordinator tells me it's not a big deal and I will still get her scores online, just that they will get a copy too. Do you call and making the correction to avoid results going to the testing school? Is it for privacy of data? Many Thanks. Regards.
