<p>Is this true?</p>
<p>If you took Calc AB, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics in high school; you don't even receive credit for them in Stern? and what if i got a 3 in Biology AP?? I'm pretty sure i can't get credit for that science class either since they only accept 4 and 5's? Someone please confirm these thingss</p>
<p>Defiantly only 4 and 5’s, Don’t know on Stern.</p>
<p>stern only takes 4-5’s. you don’t get credit for ap calc, economics and stat. they’re only used for placement. i think you get like 4 credits for soc ap’s and i think 8 for sciences…</p>
<p>Stern does NOT accept AP scores for their core classes. however, they might accept your math scores and other AP courses. Here is the link </p>

<p>they do not accept the math scores for credit, only placement to a higher math and placement into microeconomics without taking calculus.</p>
<p>Here is the link for all that information</p>

<p>Wow so this kinda sucks…but also technically since I am not really good at Math OR economics, could i techinically take the AP tests and score pretty low. Then they would place me in easier classes at NYU and then I could get better grades cause i know this stuff and then get a higher GPA. Am I missing something here? I mean, cause since this situation sucks really bad, wouldnt it help me overall?</p>
<p>And plus I don’t need to study for my AP tests and save some white hairs.</p>
<p>The only downside I see to this is I don’t really become any smarter. are there any negatives to this plan?</p>
<p>$70 down the hole.</p>
<p>some professors assume you know basic economics and terms when teaching the class so taking the AP class isn’t a bad thing.</p>
