<p>PS. can u still take AP after college admission n still get credit? if u can how do u do it?</p>
<p>You’ll have to check with each college as far as AP credit. If they will give credit for APs, then it’s fine to finish the AP exam after you’ve already received your acceptance to college. Credit, if it’s offered, will be sorted out after you are admitted. Just so you know, though, many selective colleges do not grant credit for AP courses/exams.</p>
<p>You’ve listed 4 SAT Subject Tests. That should be fine. It’s more than most places require, but as a homeschooler it’s doesn’t hurt to have that extra validation of your work.</p>
<p>AP exams are not used in admissions in a direct way. They certainly will look good on your transcript, and high scores on the exams is a good way to show you mastered the material, but there are no requirements for certain AP tests or a certain number of AP tests.</p>
<p>King4k2, also do some research online about homeschoolers applying to UCs. Things may have changed, but many colleges in the UC system used to make it very difficult for homeschoolers to meet their admissions requirements.</p>
<p>Another thing, it is not necessary to take the GED. It will be of no use in college admissions. As far as tests go, it’s all about the SAT or ACT. The GED is not only not referenced on college applications, but in the United States it has a slighly negative connotation, as it was originally most used by students who were unable to complete high school for academic reasons.</p>
<p>If you have reasons of your own for taking it, that’s different, but just for purposes of college admissions, you can forget about it.</p>
