So I was reading the course catalog and I found this for the prereqs for Econ 20000 (intermediate econ):

“ECON 19800 is required of students without a prior microeconomics course.”

Do AP Micro and Maco count as prior economics courses? Can I test out of the prerequisite if they don’t?

I know that high school courses don’t measure up to any introductory econ course at a college, especially at the University of Chicago. Still, I’d like to know if such an option is available and what the department thinks of the matter.
