<p>I have no idea how to calculate how much AP credit I have. Can someone show me?</p>

<p>I want to major in computer science. Is this enough for me to skip to sophomore year or at least 2nd semester of freshman year?</p>

<p>I have:
AP Calculus BC:4
AB subscore: 4
AP Computer Science A: 4
AP World History: 4
AP Statistics: 4
AP Biology: 3</p>

<p>I know..no fives lol...wonder how I got in :P</p>

<p>You can skip Math 1A, but not Math 1B since you didn’t get a 5.
You could skip CS61A if you got a 5 on AP CS, but it’s a good class to take no matter what AP score you got.
For the AP courses you listed, you’ll get about 15 units which is about 2nd semester of freshman year.</p>

<p>AP CS A does not allow you to skip CS 61A. The College of Engineering allowed the discontinued AP CS AB to count for CS 61B but not CS 61A (not sure if the L&S CS major ever allowed that).</p>

<p>A 4 on AP calculus AB or BC lets you skip Math 1A, but you may want to read the recommendations from the Math Department and review some old Math 1A final exams as described here:
