Suppose I take a bunch of AP Exams without taking their corresponding courses (e.g. AP Physics 1 & 2 Exams without taking AP Physics 1 & 2 courses).
Does this method provide any benefit on college applications? Is it worth it?
I did that for AP Bio last year. I guess it shows drive or something.
It shows nothing. Colleges won’t see your AP scores until after they accept you and you send them for credit.
