So I read that Cal and UCLA are doing this but… is it true that our AP tests won’t help us in getting earlier registration for classes? Like, are they taking away that standing sophomore/junior thing for freshman where the units we accumulated through AP/IB won’t count? And are there any benefits to taking AP tests? (Other than getting rid of English or a math class or something)
UCSD does that. Your AP units don’t count toward your unit maximum, but students with more AP credits enroll sooner than those with fewer. They count toward determining your class standing.
