I'm not sure if AP exams are offered in the UK; if you are looking at US colleges for undergrad entry from the UK, they won't require AP exams, but rather look at A level results or IB results. It won't disadvantage you if don't have AP exams- they are not required nor the norm of international applicants.

Yea, if you are doing A - Levels or the IB then you need not take the AP exams..

if ur looking to do AP exams to get college credit, don't bother, cos you can get the same credit with your alevel exams... i was planning on doing a couple of AP's but then i spoke to this university admissions officer, and she told me there's no point.

but if u still want to, you can follow the collegeboard instructions (which i agree, aren't that great) and call AP services
