Check if your community college will accept it to fulfill part of IGETC, and if your target 4-year schools will accept it for general education requirements.

For UC purposes, an AP biology score of 3 or higher gives 8 quarter units = 5.3 semester units, according to http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/counselors/exam-credit/ap-credits/index.html . The various CSU campus web sites indicate that an AP biology score of 3 or higher gives 9 quarter units = 6 semester units at CSUs. These units can help you meet the 90 quarter units = 60 semester units needed to transfer (though your total unit count may differ for UC and CSU purposes due to different numbers of units for AP scores).
