For languages, placement is based either on the AP test or on Yale’s own placement test. Getting a 5 on the AP will (if I remember correctly) place you out of all but one semester of language requirement. So if you think you might want to take Spanish, it might be worthwhile taking that AP.

If you’re not interesting in accelerating, then I’m not sure any of the others will help you, although you can check individual departments to see if any of them might help with placement. Math, possibly. I’m almost certain US Gov’t and Lit will do nothing for you.
