Are AP classes a scam?

For the colleges that accept AP course credit, if a high school student takes enough AP classes, will s/he be treated as a transfer student at those colleges? If not, why not?

<p>Typically, potential college credit (whether AP, IB, or actual college courses) earned before high school graduation does not cause a student to be viewed as a transfer student by most colleges. But check each college’s policy to be sure.</p>
