Confused about AP credit

[hairypotty]

<p>I don't understand how AP credit can be used in colleges. For example, colleges usually require one credit of social studies. If I get AP credit from US History, do I still have to take social studies class, or will I be placed in more advanced class?</p>

<p>It really depends on where you're attending. Different schools have different policies.</p>
