<p>So I know there have been other threads on this subject, but I was just wondering what northwestern's policy on ap credit is, particularly for mccormick? Also does anyone know if nu has a website with all of the ap requirements (ie what scores you have to get and how many you can use)? Any information would be helpful, thanks.</p>

<p>If i have 5's on all 3 history courses, can I test out of 6 courses, or only 2?</p>

<p>Just 2. Which sucks.</p>

<p>I signed up for AP Literature and AP European History not anticipating going to Northwestern but rather Syracuse, and now I'm going to be taking it for no credit since I got 5s on Lang and US/World. I would just skip the exam, but I kinda petitioned the school for funds to take the exams so I would feel kinda bad doing that.</p>

<p>the ap policy lets you "skip" courses and move on to the next level, though there is a cap to how many. the "2" rule i believe is in regard to fulfilling distro's. you can get more elective credits, which are just free credits that could potentially allow you to take less credits/graduate early</p>
