AP Credit at U of I?

<p>I am trying to find out which AP tests U of I offers credits for, at what scores, and how many credits. I looked on the collegeboard website but it is a bad link, and I can't find anything at the U of I website. Does anyone know where I could find this info?</p>

<p>This was last year:</p>

<p>They bumped up the minimum passing scores of Physics C and Psychology from 4 to 5. I wonder if those who placed out of freshman physics were struggling in the more advanced physics classes.</p>

<p>The answer to your "wonder" is exactly that. The departmental recommendation to raise the AP barrier on physics was because they believed too many of those who accepted the AP credit with less than a 5 were getting C's or less in subsequent courses (Physics 212 if you passed out of 211 and Physics 213 (thermal) and 214 (quantum) if you passed out of 212). For the same reason, the math department voted last year to do away with accepting a 3 for granting AP calculus credit.</p>
