<p>Or is that for all majors? </p>
<p>If so, most of the AP exams I took are useless.</p>
<p>You can’t AP out of breadth if you are in L&S.</p>
<p>Same here, I took 14 tests and only 4 are getting me out of classes. AP Lit, Calc BC, Comp Sci AB and Spanish. US history does help with the AH&I requirement though.</p>
<p>You also earn units toward the totals needed to graduate. Your effective class level is higher. Generally you have earlier telebeats times than your peers entering with less AP credit.</p>
<p>Your TeleBEARS appointment is dictated by your Non-AP Level on BearFacts. </p>
<p>Having AP/IB units pushes your appointment up relative to other people within the same Non-AP Level, which is a major plus.</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>I have another question, I heard that I’m still supposed to declare a major in the 2 years before I apply for Haas. I want to know if this impacts what courses I take.</p>
<p>^That is not quite true. If you are going for Haas, you don’t need to declare a major because if you get into Haas you will automatically be declared for a B.S. in Business Administration.</p>
<p>For most majors you do not need to declare until your junior year. You are allowed to declare during your sophomore year (or even your freshman year) for certain majors. </p>
<p>For some majors declaring early is pointless, for others it is a really good idea.
As you declare by the semester your reach/break 85 units (this does not count AP/IB units), you are fine (unless you are looking at a capped major)</p>
