How many AP credits would I get with these scores?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Pennsylvania

<p>If this matters, I'm aiming to get into Wharton for a finance + accounting double concentration. </p>

<p>My current AP scores (as of the beginning of my senior year) are as follows: </p>

<p>Microeconomics (self-studied): 5
Macroeconomics (self-studied): 5
Statistics: 5
Music Theory: 5
World History: 5
Calculus BC: 5
US History: 5
English Language: 5
Chemistry: 5</p>

<p>Senior-year AP Classes:
AP Physics C Mech
AP Physics C E/M
AP Computer Science
AP English Literature
AP Psych
AP Spanish Lang (will take both Span Lang and Span Lit exams to have 2 cracks at getting credit) </p>

<p>I'm also taking a Community College Class in Multivar Calc this year ....will that translate into credit at Penn? </p>

<p>It’s probably unwise to waive out of the Penn Macroeconomics and Microeconomics courses, or from an advanced calculus course with material similar to the CC multivariable calculus class that you are taking.</p>

<p>The credits help you skip introductory courses. They won’t help you graduate early but they are likely to help in completing a double major in 4 years.</p>

<p>OP despite your very good scores, you will get very little actual credit. Mostly you will get to waive out of certain courses. My son had similar scores and credits (although you will have more science courses) but only received credit for one english course (not both Language and Literature). Mostly he waived out of courses.</p>

<p>Also I disagreee with fogcity about waiving out of advanced calculus. A Wharton education does not require that much higher level math and if you have taken and done well at multivariable calculus there is no neeed to take further calculus. My son, like you, took multivariable his senior year through a local CC and has found that sufficent at Wharton. Regarding economics you probably do not want to waive out of it, especially since you self studied. Also Wahrton has an applied economics couse that you would have to take… </p>
