So...I'm confused about the Core.

I don’t know much about language but for math science related things.

Basically, if your placement exam goes all wrong and you have AP credit, it isn’t difficult to get placed into a higher class if that is your desire. In other words, you get to choose what will give you more (or anything less than that…).

For physics, AP credit is ONLY for the “12000” sequence (e.g. this won’t count for Physics OR Chemistry majors though it works for anything else).

For math, AP credit can get you out of 15100/15200 (1st/2nd quarter of calculus) but the placement exam can place you as high as 20700 (Honors Analysis).

For chemistry, AP credit can get you out of General Chemistry. Many forgo AP credit and take Honors General Chemistry (and find it difficult…).
