How do students most commonly use AP/IB credit? (assuming that they attend a school where credit units, subject credit, and advanced placement is available for at least some of what they bring in)
I.e. which of the following (could be more than one)?
A. Instead of taking typical common frosh level courses, the student takes more advanced courses and/or additional free electives in place of the courses that the AP/IB credit can substitute for, but still takes eight semesters and the full number of courses/credits to graduate.
B. The student uses the AP/IB credit to graduate in fewer than eight semesters.
C. The student uses the AP/IB credit to graduate in eight semesters after taking fewer than the usual required number of courses/credits.
In my own case many years ago, I did A (substitute more advanced courses and free electives).
