[Advanced Placement Credit : Center for Academic Support](Advanced Placement : Advising Handbook : College Center for Advising Services : University of Rochester)

From that website: Departmental criteria are established each year to determine how credit or placement may be granted to students who take the Advanced Placement tests which are usually given during the student’s senior year in high school. Such course credit may be used toward meeting degree requirements.

Students are notified of Advanced Placement credit by the College Center for Academic Support. Those wishing to discuss Advanced Placement credit should contact that office.

To figure out class number designations, I would recommend looking up the course description of each class to see the topics covered.

141, 142, and 143 are considered “pre-med” calculus courses. They are taught at a slower pace.

161 and 162 go over the same material as 141, 142, and 143, but only in two semesters. This is better for math majors, engineers, physics majors, etc.
