<p>If I got a 5 on my AP US Gov't exam back in high school, does it count as having taken Polysci 40? If so, does that mean I only need to take 3 lower division courses to enter the polysci major since that would count as having taken one?</p>
<p>I was just looking over the AP credit site (AP</a> Credit - College of Letters and Science - UCLA Undergraduate Admissions) and it never explicitly said it gives credit for "PS 40", it just said "Pol Sci - United States."</p>
<p>No, I’m pretty sure it doesn’t count. I’m a history major and I took AP U.S. and World History in high school, and even though those courses are kinda-sorta considered the equivalent of certain lower-div classes here, taking them in HS didn’t get me out of any of the pre-reqs for the major.</p>
<p>Thanks. 10char</p>
<p>yeah, Raychul is right, you won’t get any course credit for APUSH (or many other AP classes, for that matter).</p>
<p>For any other questions like this, you should find [AP</a> Credit - UCLA Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/Prospect/APCredit.htm]AP”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/Prospect/APCredit.htm) very helpful.</p>
<p>Best,
