I have already read through the available information on Duke’s website regarding AP credits, but I have a more specific question about credit for English courses. Duke states that AP English exams (both Lit and Lang) do not exempt freshman from introductory writing. I got a 5 on AP English Lit last year and was wondering if there is a point taking the AP English Lang test this year. I already have other AP credits to drop the total requirement from 34 to 32. I do not see any point in taking it, but would like to double check with someone who is more knowledgeable. Help would be very much appreciated.
