What AP exams are worth taking?

Ooh and for premed:
1 AP credit in Math and 1 for Physics fulfill the premed requirements for many schools, but this policy is often school-specific. The thing is, med schools want to see your grade in those classes, so if you eventually show them that you can do fine in a higher level class in college, together with one AP credit, you should be okay. You still need to take physics lab though (heck!)

And for math, if you take a higher level calculus class and do well, i.e. take Calc 3 and get an A, you get retroactive credits (automatically granted credits for calc1 and calc 2 in this case).
