<p>First off, you need to fill a writing requirement. You need to take WR100 and WR150. You need to fill a foreign language requirement that you can test out of with an AP score, SAT II score, or just testing at BU. There is a math requirement you can test out of by getting at least a 580 on the math section of the SAT, AP score of 3, ACT score of 23. After that comes the General Requirements where they make you take classes in certain subjects like Humanities, Science (with lab credit I believe), Social Science, etc. You can also fill general requirements by taking the Core Curriculum instead.</p>
