<p>I attended the Latino Medical Student Association at UCLA for premed students this last weekend (I’m not Hispanic or premed so I totally felt out of place), and they were saying that those who wish to apply for med school should <em>not</em> use AP classes. Most schools do not allow you to take a class that’s easier after you’ve passed/gotten a grade on a more advanced class so you would have to take a class more difficult than you would have needed for requirements. (One year of chemistry, one year of biology, etc.) Additionally, and this was very disheartening for some in attendance, schools do not honor retaken classes and they will average your two grades. </p>
<p>On a sidenote, UCLA’s campus doesn’t do much for me anymore xD.</p>
