<p>if i get a 4 or 5 on my upcoming ap bio test what will i receive credit towards?</p>
<p>how many classes will i miss and what would they be if I am going to be a civil engineering major?</p>
<p>thanks</p>

<li>AP bio is useless for engineers.</li>

<p>I was told that getting 4 on AP Bio get you credit for BSCl105 a while a score of 5 gives you credit for BSCl105 and BSCl106 which fulfills CORE requirement for life science. I am a mechanical engineering major</p>
<p>[Distributive</a> Studies Courses - Life Sciences Lab Courses - University of Maryland](<a href=“http://www.ugst.umd.edu/core/courses/Distributive/LifeLabCo.html]Distributive”>http://www.ugst.umd.edu/core/courses/Distributive/LifeLabCo.html)</p>
<p>Look at the following chart. </p>
<p>[Transfer</a> Credit Center | Advanced Placement Exams (AP)](<a href=“http://www.tce.umd.edu/apchart.html]Transfer”>http://www.tce.umd.edu/apchart.html)</p>
<p>You’ll get credit hours towards the Core life sciences, as 33dmjjm says. Orbit may say it is useless because you’ll be required to take science classes (including lab classes) already as an engineering major. However, the additional hours bumps up your priority for lots of things at UMD which are done in order by credit hours. I know that both D’s (who had a boatload of AP credits coming in) have registered far ahead of their classmates who didn’t have any credits. Engineering may do registration scheduling differently, and not in order of credit hours, but I think most other schools do.</p>
