How did AP Credits Prove Useful?

My S’s school limits him to 12 AP credits. He was able to take more advanced classes (for example, took multivariable calc his first semester). Yes they did check off some gen ed requirements but in most cases he will likely take electives in some of those areas so in the end I don’t think it will matter much. For example he had credit through AP English but chose to take freshman English anyway to gain confidence in his writing. No plans to graduate early. Too early to say if he will double major but since only 12 credits are accepted it won’t get him too far.
