AP credit

<p>do you really receive zero credit hours for a 3-4 on the AP Calculus AB exam? this seems a little ridiculous to me, especially for a state school...</p>

<p>If you score a 4, you receive 4 credit hours, per their website. (score of 3=0)</p>

<p>where’s the website that tells all the credits for APs?</p>

<p>Hardly any schools accept 3 for science and math classes anymore.</p>

<p>Do you think it would be rediculous if it was Georgia Tech?</p>

<p>no because GT is mainly a science and math school</p>

<p>so , expanding on the question, if i were to get a 3 on the exam, would I exempt any classes without getting credit hours?</p>

<p>You get to except Precalc and go straight into Calc 1, but you don’t get any credit hours for it.</p>

<p>Then your logic about it being a state school doesn’t hold. Again, most state schools don’t except 3s for science and math courses. Then again, I was surprised to observe that as few private schools take a 3 in rare cases. Like Duke taking one for Calc. B/C. Not even Emory takes a 3 there (or in anything).</p>

<p>HEY KID, WHAT’S WITH THE “EVEN EMORY”?</p>

<p>Oops. Sorry. You tripped my jingoistic regional pride reaction.</p>

<p>I just think Calc.1 and 2 are kind of easy here, that’s all. Depends on the professor though. Just makes me wonder why Duke would take a 3. I figure that math at Duke would be on par or far more difficult than math here due to the fact that it has an engineering school. Honestly, unless you are in life-sciences calc. at Emory, the intro. (1 and 2) math courses are not taken very seriously. I think at least Calc. 1 should be made more difficult (or the curving should be nearly eliminated) across the board so that some people don’t get screwed over in the some the more difficult Calc. 2 sections.</p>

<p>I guess you go to Emory?</p>

<p>the calc AB exam isn’t even hard.</p>
