<p>Oh, and to your original question RE AP classes:
neither music nor stats are required for a degree. Music theory MIGHT qualify for a gen ed at your college of choice.</p>
<p>If I had a wide selection and limited time, I’d rank AP classes like this:
Calc
Physics
English
History</p>
<p>Hard sciences</p>
<p>everything else.</p>
<p>Calc and Physics are required for the degree no matter the school.
English is required as a gen ed, no matter the school.
Hard sciences (Chem, Bio, etc) are usually gen ed requirements.
Everything else is either gen ed, or extra electives.</p>
