Examination Accepted Scores Requirement Met Numeric Credit Equivalent Brandeis Courses

This document outlines Brandeis University's policy for awarding advanced placement (AP) credit based on AP exam scores. It lists the AP exams accepted, the minimum required scores, the Brandeis department or subject area requirements satisfied, the amount of numeric credit awarded, and equivalent Brandeis courses for each accepted AP exam. For example, an AP Biology score of 5 would satisfy a School of Science requirement, award 4 credits, and be equivalent to Brandeis' BIOL 15b course. The document also notes policies for cases where multiple exams could fulfill the same requirement to avoid double counting credits.

* Students electing to receive AP credit for first-year chemistry cannot take CHEM 11a/b, CHEM 15a/b, CHEM 18a/b, or CHEM 19a/b for credit.
**Students may receive credit for either Mathematics AB or Mathematics BC, but not for both.
***Students may not receive credit for both Physics 1 and Physics C: Mechanical, or for both Physics 2 and Physics C: Electrical. Students electing to receive AP credit
for Physics 1 or Physics C: Mechanical cannot take PHYS 10a or PHYS 11a. Students electing to receive AP credit for Physics 2 or Physics C: Electrical cannot take
PHYS 10b or PHYS 11b. If a student claims AP credit AND elects to take PHYS 15, the AP credit earns course credit, but does not count towards the physics major.
+Students may not enroll in a lower level course at Brandeis University and also claim AP exam credit that has a higher level course equivalent. For example, students
cannot enroll in MATH 10a at Brandeis and also receive AP credit for MATH 10b. This policy regarding lower-level sequence courses applies to AP Chemistry,
Mathematics and Physics exams. If students enroll in lower-level courses after claiming their AP exam credit, that credit will be subject to revocation.
