<p>Does Princeton give any AP credit for AP Comparative Government?
I checked the AP Chart...but I can't find that or AP US Government.</p>
<p>I am a rising senior. Would it be worth taking AP Comp Gov?</p>
<p>(Also...a lot of the other Ivys seem to be missing the AP Govs on their charts too. Can someone explain?)</p>
<p>If you go to a school like Princeton, most AP credit doesn’t matter at all. The only ones that matter are math / sciences and a foreign language (foreign language gets you out of the language requirement and into more advanced courses, math / science APs can get you into more advanced courses and might satisfy requirements for your major).</p>
<p>So having taken the AP comp gov exam won’t help you at all once you get to Princeton, but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t take the class - it might help you get in, and the knowledge you gain might help you in princeton classes. I’m a big advocate for taking classes that you’re genuinely interested in, especially during senior year.</p>
<p>I agree ! But…I have a schedule conflict…taking another class that I would enjoy more and it’s the same block as AP Comp. So, I guess I’ll have to drop :(</p>
