Should I take these AP tests?

I have completed the classes and I have signed up and paid to take the Calc BC, Physics C pt 1 (mechanics), and Psychology tests.

I am doing pre-med and my major doesn’t require any of them. I need psychology for something else, but I don’t need to take any calculus. I need to take normal physics, but I’m not sure if calculus based mechanics will count for the noncalculus mechanics class.

I guess I’m not completely sure how AP credits work. Even if I have no requirement to take any math at all (I got an advanced waiver from my ACT score so I can go right into stats ), can the 9 credits I will get count toward graduation or something? Can medical schools see it? I assume that would look better than having nothing.

Thanks
