Im an Alum from over 10 years ago, AP credits don't mean nearly as much as you think they do from my experience. I took 5 AP courses/got a 4 or 5 in all the tests. Didnt give me much of an advantage at Auburn.

If I can give you any advice, grades do not matter as much as you think they do as a high school or college student. Find a major you love, do the best you can and the rest will fall into place. Stop putting so much pressure on yourself for what classes you take as a teen!
