<p>I'm slightly confused by this chart. What does "no exemption" mean? No exemption from what?</p>
<p>For example, for Biology, it says you can get 3 advanced credit but next to it, it says "no exemption." What good are these advanced credits, say, if you wanna major in chem engineering? What is an advanced credit anyway? </p>
<p>Also, for SEAS, I heard you can only get 16 advanced credits and no more? </p>
<p>Also, they don't list AP Stats. Is it good for nothing?</p>
<p>Ahh! help!</p>

<p>There are two different things – credit and placement. Credit is units(points) towards graduation. Placement is getting out of requirements.</p>
<p>For bio, you get 3 credits towards graduation, but you’d still have to take the introductory bio course if your major requires it.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You’re on to something. If you’re in a cushy major with few requirements, advanced credits might allow you to slack off and take a lighter load or graduate early. In the more intense SEAS majors like ChE, you’re likely going to finish with a good deal more credits than the minimum required for graduation so your advanced credits are superfluous.</p>
<p>So if I want to do be an econ major, would I get points towards graduation for 5s on language, us history, spanish and calculus ab?</p>
<p>Does anyone have a link?</p>
