Why bother with remaining AP tests? USC caps AP credit.

Right, I checked out the website and everything, but I can’t find any specific info for my major (probably global health if all goes well switching at Orientation). I’m just assuming it’s the same as on the main AP credit website where it lists the credit you get for each course.

Basically what it comes down to is: I’ll get credit AND placed out of GE 3 from AP Bio, get credit AND place out of the foreign language req from AP Spanish, and then get 24 more “elective” credits for the rest of my tests. So my final 2 tests won’t count.

And I know trying my best on all the tests is the “right thing to do” and I’m a perfectionist enough that I could never actually blow them off and not take them/try at all during the test… it’s just nice to know that I don’t need to give myself an ulcer from the stress of cramming for those two last tests the night before :)
