Regarding repeating AP credit for which the college allows advanced placement:
A. A student unsure of whether to take advanced placement may want to try the college’s old final exams for the course(s) to be skipped to check the student’s knowledge by the college’s standards. This will allow a more informed placement decision rather than assuming that it is always better to repeat the AP credit (which can be a waste of schedule space or tuition if the student knows the material well).
B. Pre-meds need to disclose repeated courses or AP credit on the medical school application even if the college does not show the repeat on the transcript.
