Self-study both AP Macro/Micro Econ & US Gov't?

<p>I go to a private school that doesn't offer AP classes. I'm planning to self-study for APs. This year I'm taking Econ (semester 1) and US Govt (semester 2) so I am wondering if I should take the AP tests for both Econs and US Govt.</p>

<p>Does it make sense to take all 3 AP tests? Or should I just take one Econ and the US Govt test? Someone told me that I only need 2 classes from this category in the UC Gen Ed reqs, so should I just take 2 of the tests? Or is it better to self-study for all 3?</p>

<p>Thanks for all your help!</p>
