<p>On this link: AP</a> & IB Credit | Office of the Registar | Rice University , the pdf says that for certain credits, there is no corresponding class offered by Rice, so the class is just "AP Credit In ______". Will this take care of my distribution requirements? I'm trying to decide which AP exams I want to take. I am planning on taking Bio, Environmental, Comp Sci AB, Physics C Mechanics and E&M, and Stats. </p>
<p>I also have the option of taking English Lit, but if I can't get credit for it that would let me place out of a class or clear up a humanities requirement, two hours of writing essays and another hour of analyzing poetry is something I'd really not want to endure for nothing. Does anyone know if taking this exam (assuming I score at least a 4) will do anything for me? Thank you very much.</p>
<p>The pdf file shows you which AP classes count for distribution credit (rightmost column).
According to the pdf, all of the classes you mentioned count for D3 credit, so you'll come in with your D3 requirements already satisfied. AP Lit doesn't count for D1, unfortunately. BUT, you get general credit for it... so say you need 120 hours to graduate -- with AP English credit, you've already got 3 hours of that total. So it does nothing as far as distribution, but that's one less class you have to take to graduate.</p>
<p>DS chose not to take AP's that didn't meet distribution credits. With all the requirements for his degree, he will not be hurting for credit hours to graduate.</p>
<p>^^ I though it was too late, too... if it's not I'd like to sign up for microecon. I signed up for macro but I just realized I can also handle the micro by reading the review book...</p>
