AP credit that may apply to pre-med courses is a complicated subject. See FAQ Pre-med courses, AP/IB/etc. credit and college/DE courses, etc. .

If you are a Washington resident, why not attend a lower cost Washington public university and save money for expensive medical school, if you get in?

Be sure to have alternate plans. Most frosh pre-meds never get to applying to medical school (because they know that their GPA and/or MCAT is too low); of those who do apply, only about 40% get any admission to a medical school. Biology is generally associated with low paid jobs at the bachelor’s degree level.
