<p>Scores of 5 on humanities APs do count as units outside the GIRs, and they count toward the 180 that you need to graduate. I'm not sure, however, what exactly is meant by "25% of the undergraduate program" -- whether they mean just in a pure unit sense, or whether you have to have completed a certain set of classes to qualify.</p>
<p>EDIT: Ah, I see.

To be eligible for early sophomore status, a student must have completed by the end of the first term 25% of the undergraduate program, including a majority of the Science Requirement and an appropriate Communication Intensive subject (either a CI-H or CI-HW).

So I guess you have to have taken/have credit for the majority of the six-subject science requirement (8.01, 8.02, 18.01, 18.02, 5.111/5.112/3.091, 7.012/3/4).</p>
