I had the same problem with physics, because my physics class was taught as the non-calculus version and my degree program in college required the calculus version. The credits would have still counted as my required physics prerequisites if I hadn't been pursuing a science degree.

But even in light of that, AP tests are POCKET CHANGE compared to five credit-hours of college tuition. It's worth the gamble, in my opinion. That said, ask questions -- find out which specific test the class is working towards so you can try to avoid that problem. If you're intending to pursue a science degree (like computer science) then make sure you're going to be taking Calculus BC (which I did take) and Physics C (I unfortunately took Physics B).

Tiva, I'm guessing you didn't take precalculus before you took AP Calculus?
