He applied to Colo School of Mines, Colo College, Rose Hulman, Case Western, Wash U St Louis, Rice, Harvey Mudd, Caltech. Was accepted to all but Wash U - waitlisted and then rejected there.

I don’t remember exactly which exams he took - Physics (both) and Calc BC for sure, I think also Chemistry and English Composition. Did not take any other humanities, or biology.

How he took the exams was: we contacted local high schools giving them and asked if he could sit in, same as with the SAT/ACT. The College Board website gives directions, but I don’t remember the details. I do know you need to start in late Winter/early spring to get the process moving for AP tests.
