<p>I think it depends on the school. For ivies, it probably isn’t much of a plus.</p>
<p>however, at my kids’ college, my son self-studied or AP English Comp (which supposedly is easy to self-study) so that he could get out of taking 2 frosh comp courses. It worked! and he got 6 extra credits . He entered college as a second semester sophomore because of all of his AP credits. Helped with registration…and helped with his major and 3 minors.</p>
