AP Credit

Hi! I’m a Florida Junior and was trying to select my courseload for next year.

I’ve already taken AP Statistics (5), Spanish (5), World (3), and Euro. This year I’ve taken Psych, APUSH, Calc AB, Chem, and Lang. Next year I’m signed up for Physics C, Calc Bc, Lit, Human, Gov/Macro, and a DE course in Art (I needed a fine arts credit to graduate). I’m also thinking of taking AP Micro and AP CS online but am still unsure.

I’m curious as to what courses would give me college credit, how many credits can I have going into college, how do I submit them, and how that would affect me if I’m applying to either the M&T programs, Engineering, or Wharton.

Thanks in advance!

You can submit your AP scores by indicating the university you will be attending on your answer sheet next year. The college Board will then send all your scores regardless of year.

As to how it will affect your application - it will have little affect. AP scores are mainly used for credit and/or placement.
