*So this actually happened.
If anyone is a possible transfer into STEM and strongly considering Emory, you should likely get into contact with the chemistry department (either Dr. Lutz, McGill, or Mulford) about equivalencies. If you are applying or seriously interested in Emory (maybe ED1 or 2) and thinking STEM, pay attention as well. Note that if you have an AP credit, starting next year you can start at 202-Z (I recommend this path) and then you may take 203-Z or really whatever course you want in the sequence (204 and 205 do not have pre-reqs outside of AP or 150 I don’t think).
For pre-healths, the AP credit problem and the “extra class” issue is really diminished because there are now 5 foundation courses meaning you can enter at 202-Z or 202 and go up to 205. Having 205 (the one they said is for chemistry majors) could possibly help for the MCAT anyway (the concepts may basically be presented how the MCAT would do an integrated passage on physical and biological or chemical sciences anyway). Since you are essentially skipping one course and not two and none are truly equivalent to a general chemistry, there is no reason for pre-meds to worry about how med. schools will judge them for using AP credit. As long as you complete 4/5 of the foundation courses in the sequence, you will be good. And no, I do not advise attempting 150 for an easy A, because most even with 5’s back when it was 141 didn’t make an A or A- for that matter (more like mostly B+s, many Bs, and some B-s, and some were so bored that they got lower, so don’t really do it to yourself unless you are shamefully lazy or took AP/IB/A-level as a sophomore and did no other chemistry or physics after it). Just take 202-Z or wait it out and wait for 202 to roll around).
Some of your options are laid out here that address pathways regarding those with no AP/IB credit: http://chemistry.emory.edu/home/documents/CHEM141_CHEM142_Advising_Info.pdf
