Are AP credits REALLY worth the trouble?

<p>None, per se, unless you are able to use the credit to graduate a semester or quarter early (or take fewer courses than otherwise needed at schools that charge tuition by the course or credit), or avoid graduating late.</p>

<p>If you know the material well, skip it and enjoy a free elective instead of wasting time and tuition on what you already know. Use the college’s old final exams for the course that may be skipped to check your knowledge.</p>
