I’m taking it as an online course right now. I plan to major in International Relations. Will it be beneficial if I take and pass the exam? Right now I have opted not to take it because I didn’t want another exam to study for (I only took it online so I could have late arrival at school). I’m halfway through the course and it seems alright so far, but I have no idea if I will remember anything come exam time since it’s an online course (it’s on Florida Virtual School). I find a lot of it a bit challenging and I don’t know if I actually understand anything… Soooo to take or not to take the exam?
You may get college credit if you take and pass the exam. If you take and don’t pass the exam, it doesn’t matter because colleges don’t use AP tests in admissions (as many are taken after you are accepted).
If this is an official class then your grades will be on your transcript and your grades will count for college admissions. I would advise you to assume you are taking the test, so you work hard in the class and get good grades.
