AP credit?

<p>I’m a bit confused by a few things:

  1. A 5 on Calc AB gives credit for Math 15100, but the catalog says ([Courses</a> & Programs of Study](<a href=“http://collegecatalog.uchicago.edu/liberal/curriculum.shtml]Courses”>http://collegecatalog.uchicago.edu/liberal/curriculum.shtml)) “Math 15100 may be used to meet the math. sciences requirement only if Math 15200 is also taken.” A 5 on Calc BC gives credit for Math 15100 and Math 15200. The Core requires only 1 Math credit. For someone who doesn’t want to major in science or math, am I correct in concluding that the 5 in Calc BC will allow a person to be exempt from having to take any math courses, but the 5 in Calc AB will give course credit but not fulfill the math requirement by itself?
  2. Both a 4 and a 5 on the Bio exam appear to give the same 1 quarter gen. ed. credit for BIOS. Again assuming no desire to pursue a science or math major, is there any benefit for scoring a 5 rather than a 4 on the AP Bio exam?
  3. Is the 3 quarters of elective credits for a 4 or 5 in Government and Politics granted only for students who have taken both Comp. AND US or for students who have taken Comp. OR US?
  4. The policy states clearly that there’s a 6 credit max. for AP, placement, and other exam credits. If credit is granted for a college course taken during high school (and not counted by the high school as a credit towards graduation), is that credit also counted towards the 6 credit max. or can it be counted in addition to the 6 credits from AP and placement exams?</p>
