How does TAMU handle AP credit?

Hey y'all, rising senior here. I've got a few APs under my belt and was wondering about how Texas A&M University uses them for credit. Do they accept all scores of 3 and above or is it more nuanced than that? Any insight is greatly appreciated!

Hi there! Texas A&M University handles AP credit on a course-by-course basis. While many of the AP courses are indeed accepted for credit with a score of3 or above, some courses do require a score of 4 or even 5 to receive credit.

For instance, for the AP Chemistry exam, you'll need a score of 3 to gain credit for the first part of the introductory chemistry courses (CHEM101 and CHEM111). But you'll need a score of 4 to get credit for the second part (CHEM102 and CHEM112).

For AP Calculus BC, you could get credit for MATH151 and MATH152 with a score of 3 or above. But for AP English Literature, you'll need a score of 4 or 5 to receive credit for ENGL104.

To get a full picture of how TAMU handles AP credit is to check their official AP credit policy, which should be available on the school's website. There, you can find a comprehensive list detailing which AP exams they accept, and what scores you'll need for credit or placement for each specific exam. I would highly recommend you do that to make sure the information is the most current and applicable to your situation.
