I decided not to sign up for AP tests because my school doesn’t teach the entire curriculum and it was expensive as hell. But I recently committed to Northeastern and I am unsure of the scheduling. I want to do 2 co-ops in four years, but i know i’d have to use summers to take classes and make up those credits. does anyone have a clue what that would look like? basically i’m just wondering how much time i’d be spending in the summer taking classes and such. also, how is tuition counted during the summer?

i have the option to take the CLEP tests which northeastern does accept for credit, but i don’t know which ones to take or anything, i would like to spend as little time as possible in classes, you know? and i’m not going to NOT do the co-ops because they were a deciding factor and i would’ve gone to umass without them.

so i guess my question is, do any current/soon to be students know what a sample schedule might look like? would it be worth my while to take some $80 tests to get some credit? the website says i can get between 3 and 12 credits per test, but i’m sure if there’s a limit or anything. basically i’m really stressed out about this and i should have applied to more colleges but i can’t do anything about that now and don’t know what to do! thanks!
