<p>A typical "year" in terms of credits is 30. I will also be graduating with 21 credits, but we will be 9 credits away from hypothetical sophomore status.</p>
<p>Very few schools give credit for 3s on AP scores. And even fewer would give you credit for 101 french classes.</p>
<p>So, right now, I think you're looking at POSSIBLE credit hours for Econ and US History. So like 6. IF your school even awards credits for US History.</p>
<p>No... whether or not you will be given sophomore standing remains to be seen. At this point, however, you apply as a freshman applicant. THEN you lobby with the school you choose to attend to try and get sophomore standing.</p>
