AP classes?

<p>How does Duke take AP and duel enrollment classes? I have yet to visit, but I will likely do so in the near future. I was just wondering how liberal they are in accepting these sorts of courses for both placement and exemption. Is it simmilar to UNC's process?</p>

<p>Trinity only allows 2 to be used as credit towards graduation. Pratt has no limit.</p>

<p>A brief overview:</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>Once those criteria are satisfied, you must forward a copy of the syllabus, official transcript from local uni, and verification forms from both local uni and HS to Duke to be reviewed. </p>

<p>Above policy do not apply to transfer students or coursework. </p>

<p>So no, Duke is not generally liberal about accepting AP’s, IB’s, PMC’s etc. </p>

<p>Ok, very helpful. I am taknig advanced math course (calculus III and IV) at my local community college. Would I be able to place out of all the calculus and take other math courses required for a math major?</p>

<p>I can’t really say because, as I said above, this is really a judgment call made by the math department. But in my experience, if you can really prove that you know the material, then I really don’t see Duke denying at least a placement at a higher level. </p>

<p>Though I do have to say, assuming you have AP credit for both AB and BC, there’s really only one calculus course at Duke after that, Math 103, that you can get credit for. After 103, it’s basically math 104 (linear algebra). And yes, I have definitely heard of cases where incoming freshmen have placed out of math 103 so it’s not exactly an untrodden path there.</p>

<p>Does Duke let people go past 103/105 also? I would be pretty comfortable taking 203 or 181, but I don’t have the coursework for it - I just taught myself. Is it possible to just take a final there and show them that I know the material?</p>

<p>I really have no idea. But it’s doubtful.</p>
