Chemistry AP Credit issue

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>I'm an incoming Chem-E. I took AP chem my junior year and got a 5. As I understand it, that would mean that I should go directly to Chem 30A this fall. Is that a good idea? With an entire year in between, I'm sure that I've forgotten quite a bit. </p>

<p>What do people normally do in this situation? Is it possible to retake the series starting with 20A, or retake 20B as a refresher? If I did that, would I forfeit all credit, or would I be able to assign those units to a GE or something? </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>AP Chem gets you no credit for a specific class. you can petition for 20A credit, but people usually don't.</p>

<p>yeah most people just stay back and take 20A but passing AP chem made chem 20A very easy</p>
