<p>I'm taking AP Calc, AP Gov't, AP Econ, AP Physics, and AP English Lit. Plus French 4 Honors.
By the time the examination days arrive, I would have already sent my application and gotten a response from all the colleges I applied to plus getting ready to choose the college that I have been accepted into. </p>
<p>Anyway, back to the question, I'm planning to take AP gov't because I hear it's super easy but also AP Physics, Calc, and English lit to keep me motivated throughout the year. But does it really matter if I fail or pass or get a 5 on these exams when everything is over by the May and the scores come out July? Should I not even study for the AP exams but just try to stay in that class and get A's for the semesters?</p>
<p>One of the purposes of AP exams is to get college credit for undergraduate coursework.</p>
<p>Ok well then what about those classes that are not required in college. It would be a waste of money and time to take those tests then right?</p>
<p>Probably…but do you know what college you’re going to?</p>
<p>I’m pretty much in the same boat as you…took AP Stats and AP Chemistry exams, in which MIT accepts neither. I didn’t mind taking the tests, the problem was that it cost $174 to take them.</p>
<p>Move to FL! We don’t personally have to pay for them here, the school pays for them.</p>
<p>Actually it might be saving you money. A $70 exam to become exempt from a college class is pretty sweet, because college classes are definitely more than 70 bucks so it is money well spent.</p>
