<p>Getting 5’s in these subjects does not qualify skipping bio1a chem1a?</p>

<p>By the way, what is the difference between Bio1a and Bio1b?</p>

<p>I think it depends on what college you are in. You might want to check out the announcement for your college- it should be in there.</p>

<p>I’m working through the course selection for L&S right now. There was no mention of these APs, so I wanted to make sure.</p>

<p>You get hours of credit, but not exemption from any classes.</p>

<p>(by the way, berkeley treats 3s and up the same for most APs, I got 5s in both chem and bio too, but it looks like it wont matter. in fact, after seeing this page, im way less serious about my stats AP tomorrow)</p>

<p>Thanks for the link, bro!</p>

<p>Yea, it’s a bit disappointing to see those APs not go to use. I regret having taken “fun” english electives over the AP though, as this sucker seems to pack a punch.</p>

<p>EDIT - Still need a little clarification on the two intro bio courses.</p>

<p>Did you take it last year or something? I seem to get a couple of the assumptions mixed up every once in a while. After seeing that site, I dont think I should study any more of it, my ego will be fine.</p>

<p>Edit:</p>

<p>google is your friend:</p>

<p><a href=“http://■■■■■■■.com/ngpbv[/url]”>http://■■■■■■■.com/ngpbv&lt;/a&gt; <- Bio1A syllabus
<a href=“http://■■■■■■■.com/n9fl6[/url]”>http://■■■■■■■.com/n9fl6&lt;/a&gt; <- Bio1B syllabus</p>

<p>Yea, I took Bio and Chem my junior year. I was also planning on taking AP English this year, but opted for some ethnic electives at my high school.</p>

<p>I meant Stats, I took chem soph. and bio junior, im taking stats this year, tomorrow.</p>

<p>Yup, stats tomorrow…it feels pretty relaxed subsequent to Calc. Good luck to everyone on APs.</p>
