<p>HI, im rising senior in high school and im really intreasted in attending UT. I was wondering if i were to recieve a score of a 5 on the chemistry and physics exam would UT make use the credit and jump into more advanced classes, or would i have the option to decline the credit and retake both intro chem and physics?</p>
<p>*** This would help me determine my schedule for next year.<br>
THANK YOU!</p>
<p>Both. They'd give you credit for chem and physics if you wanted it, but they'd also give you an option to turn it down and take those classes at the university. </p>
<p>My advice: If you get a 5, you have shown that you have clearly mastered the material. Physics 1 and Chem 1 are big classes at UT, take the credit as you will most likely have a harder time mastering their material.</p>
<p>well the thing is i want to go premed so i would still have to take two years of chem and a year of physics since med school dosent accept AP credit, and if i were to skip intro i would have to make more advanced classes ( physics II/III and go right into Organic chem as a freshman thus lowering my gpa). Thats why i was thinking if i were to get a 5 i would retake intro chem and physics</p>
<p>All med schools in Texas accept credit by examination (AP) for premed reqs.
The advisers said that usually only high-end schools (Harvard, etc.) want you to actually take the premed courses in college.</p>
<p>I'm going to take Chem again, simply because I'm very weak in it. However, I'm using my AP credit for the chem lab portion.</p>
