I took a research lab course at my high school that required AP CS as a prerequisite, but hadn’t taken AP CS (I had taken our foundations CS class during one summer, which is a pre-req to AP CS at my high school). What I did was I took a class at the local community college over the summer before my senior year, and during my junior year, I approached the lab directors (who teach AP CS) with the course description and syllabi of several of the CS classes at the college, and they helped me decide. I’m a junior CS major in college now, and I had no problem getting the CS class to transfer once I started college, and was able to start with Data Structures.
