So, I had a question about my AP scores

<p>I got a 5 on ap calculus AB and a 4 on AP government. I also got 4s on Biology, AP Language, and USHistory.</p>

<p>Now, I'm premed, and I understand that med schools don't accept ap credit. So, I'm still going to take math1A fall semester and math1b the next.</p>

<p>But, on the college website (im in letters and science), it says I still get units for this. </p>

<p>So, basically, I'm going in with like 10 units ors omething? How doest aht work? I'm confused.</p>

<p>Insertname,</p>

<p>Since there already exists a similar thread about help with AP scores for college credit I’m going to redirect you to [url=<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/953847-question-about-ap-credit.html]here[/url”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-california-berkeley/953847-question-about-ap-credit.html]here[/url</a>]. I think you answered your own question that medical schools require one year of college math preferably courses in Calculus/Statistics. I can give a detailed summary of what you need to take as a premed here at Berkeley, but it won’t do any good unless you have done a bit of research for yourself first.</p>

<p>I know the courses we have to take.</p>

<p>My question is, do we still get the units even if we don’t pass out?</p>

<p>nvm, we still do. anyway, i’m still taking math1A, so I will get 5.3 units for passing out and an extra 4 units for doing it. could you still confirm this if i’m wrong? thanks.</p>

<p>not correct. </p>

<p>The policy is that if you take a class for which you earned AP credit, you don’t get both, you just get the Cal units. </p>

<p>The ambiguous part is that, as with many things Cal, execution is not guaranteed. It could happen right after the class is passed, it could happen when verifying readiness for graduation, or they could never get subtracted. Some AP units don’t correspond to a specific Cal class, thus you would not lose any units based on taking a class. Others are pretty closely identified with specific classes. Math AP units for someone who retakes 1A and 1B may be more likely to disappear than for an English AP.</p>
