Which AP (Advanced Placement) classes taken in high school give me credit for pre-med classes at Pepperdine?
AP physics (for Physics 210) and calculus (for Math 210 and possibly 211) will count for our pre-medical course requirements if you achieve the appropriate scores. Other AP science classes count as general education courses. We do recommend taking AP chemistry and biology in high school because they will make first year science classes at Pepperdine easier. For details about the usefulness of AP scores refer to the Pepperdine Handout on AP class credit. Be forewarned that some medical schools will not give credit for AP courses even though we do so at Pepperdine.
