Should I take AP exams as a senior?

Applying to College
1

<p>I took two AP classes last year and received a 4 and a 5. I really don't feel like adding the unnecessary stress of studying for the AP exams again as a second semester senior. On the other hand, I am taking 3 AP classes this year. I won't personally feel cheated if I have the AP credits but don't bother to take the exams. Do they even count for anything?</p>

<p>What do you think?</p>

<p>Only take the ones that your college accepts.</p>

4

<p>They can count for placement or credits, but it varies widely depending on the school.</p>

5

<p>Go ahead and take them. You may get some credit at college or more flexility with you schedule.</p>

<p>The AP tests may give you college credit, or allow you to skip the introductory college course in the subject and allow you to go into a more advanced course (effectively giving you extra elective space in your college schedule). It does depend on the college, though.</p>
