<p>This is very last minute so a quick reply is greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>I know that scoring well on the AP English test won't give me any direct course credit, but does it give me any advantage when it comes to choosing electives? I am a prospective English major just wondering if taking the AP English test has any value whatsoever.</p>
<p>It’s probably urgent because the OP had an AP test payment deadline to meet. No need to be rude, although it’s true that this would be more easily/efficiently found on Columbia’s website or by contacting admissions.</p>
<p>well my friend who was admitted early to columbia told me to ask people AP questions because apparently the school isn’t very clear on credit. and i need to sign up by tomorrow. thanks for the apathy. but i had a feeling columbia people were excessively proud…</p>
<p>Let’s all take a deep breath. I believe the message is, fundamentally, plan your time based on your personal goals, rather than whether a particular college, which you may or may not attend, might grant you credit for achieving a particular goal. If you attend Columbia, you will amass plenty of credits during your four years, with or without AP college credits.</p>
