<p>Actually, there are two issues here, jaybird.</p>
<p>1) Med schools generally don’t accept AP credits in lieu of required courses. They would prefer to see one full year of college-level coursework in English, even if you have a 5 on both AP Lit/Lang exams. You could take any Eng courses, even upper division. (Check ugbc peps for professors and subjects that you might be interested in.) Thus, my advice is to sign up for at least one English course. The lower level courses are reserved for Frosh, and good way to meet your colleagues in a small class setting.</p>
<p>2) You will receive plenty of critical thinking and writing challenges in philosophy & theology and other required Core subjects, such as history.</p>
