Strategic Approach
- Prioritize the APs you'll actually use. A 5 in an AP that maps to your major is worth more than 3 random 4s.
- Talk to admissions officers if you're targeting Top-20 programs — they'll tell you their specific preferences.
- Use AimFive's diagnostic to see where you stand and plan accordingly.
