<p>the policy is that every score on every test will mean something different. If you told me the test and score, I could tell you exactly what it would mean. Let’s say you got a 4 on European History.</p>
<p>The first column says which (if any) distribution you will fulfill. It takes care of the school of social science requirement meaning you won’t have to take any courses designated as social science in order to graduate. You get 1 course credit. That is applied toward graduation. There’s a maximum of 4 course credits (or one semester) you are able to complete by AP requirements. So, you could graduate one semester early. If you are a history major, you cannot count the AP as one of your 8 history courses. (But a 4 on Art History would allow it to count as one of your art history courses for your major.) No courses offered at Brandeis are equivalent to an AP Euro class, according to the last column.</p>
