The very first post of this sticky thread:

Coursework

discusses AP credit:



I can’t speak to what was true in the summer of 2006 (I was only 12 years old ) but today in the summer of 2012, most medical schools do accept AP credit. However, since the OP has stated that “I can’t stand the hard sciences” he/she may have special needs. It is important to differentiate between AP “credit” and “advanced placement”. It is your UG institution that makes this determination. The OP used both terms so I don’t know what exactly he/she meant. If you actually received credit then perhaps you should use it. If you just received advanced placement then perhaps you should just retake the course (since you “can’t stand” it)
