<p>Recently attended a McGill admitted students session where this subject was discussed. We were told that you MUST take the credit and the exemption for any AP for which you scored a 4 or a 5 and that you are required to report all of your scores. McGill has no way of confirming whether or not you have reported all of your scores, but if for some reaon they find out you did not, you could risk some disciplinary action (what type of disciplinary action was not discussed). You do have the option to not take the AP exam even if you are taking an AP course, in which case you will not be required to take the McGill exemption. We were also told that you may register for a class at McGill even if you have the AP credit; however, this will not be considered ‘auditing’ the class. You will have to do all of the work in the class, take the exams, etc. and you will receive a grade for the class that will appear on your transcript. However, this grade will not be figured into your GPA and you will not receive credit for the class.
Hope this information is of some help!</p>
