<p>If anyone is familiar with the requirements to obtain a degree in bio, i was wondering if it’s possible to do so in 3 years. when i graduate high school, i should have scores of 4 or 5 on the following AP tests:</p>
<p>Us history
world history
calculus ab
stats
biology
calculus bc
government
macroeconomics
english lit
physics c: mechanics
spanish</p>
<p>which of these courses will i actually fulfill undergraduate requirements for?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure my AP scores did very little in fulfilling requirements. Spanish would probably fulfill the year of foreign language requirement and your math will prob allow you to place into a higher math. Aside from that, I don’t know if any AP credit satisfies any degree requirements.</p>
<p>It’s definitely possible to graduate in 3 years, but what’s the rush?</p>
<p>Assuming you get 4s/5s on those, you will get out of the</p>
<p>American Institutions Requirement
Quantitative Reasoning Requirement
Foreign Language Requirement
Writing I requirement</p>
<p>If you pull off a 5 (not a 4) on Calc AB, you will get credit for Math 31A (or in your case, 3A) which will allow enrollment in 3B. Other than that, the courses will just give you empty units that will go towards your class standing, which leads to better enrollment times. You will still have to complete all general ed requirements (which unfortunately can’t be fulfilled with APs =/) so you’ll have those and the rest of your prep for major/major classes. In any case, graduating in 3 years isn’t impossible, especially since you bypass FL and writing I, although summer school will probably be necessary as I believe Bio is a pretty popular major so classes will fill up fast. In accordance with the previous post, why the hurry? I mean if scheduling happens to get you out in 3 years, great. But I wouldn’t force it out. Just take the time and enjoy college and learn something in your classes instead of just performing at or below average just to get a degree in less time.</p>
