* The reason for this update is that the new Physics 1 and 2 tests do not individually line up with the university level curriculum. So, in order to get credit, they need to score a 3 on both exams. However, if a student scores a 4 or 5 on one of the exams, credit will be granted for PHYS 1111K.

**Students receiving AP credit for US Government/Politics and/or American History from non-Georgia high schools must validate Georgia legislative proficiency by passing an exemption exam offered by the Office of Testing.  See "State of Georgia Legislative Requirements."
