Caltech seems to have altered their policy a bit from flat out stating they expected people to have taken the AP classes to fit in.

Will I receive credit for AP or IB classes or classes I may have taken at a nearby college?
We do not automatically grant credit for AP, IB, or college-level courses. If you decide to attend Caltech, we’ll send you placement exams in math, physics, and chemistry during the summer before your frosh year.
