Anyone ever take any of the AP Tests?

My calc teacher in HS was awesome, but no matter what I did he wouldn't give me an A. I always got a B. So when I got a 5 on the calc AB AP exam, I gave him a little "Take that!" attitude. It was definitely worth it though, because it got me out of taking 2 college calc courses and ended up with 10 calc credits before I stepped onto campus. I also got a 3 on the chem AP exam, but that was only good for 3 science elective credits. But those 13 credits kept me ahead of most freshman, so I was able to register for classes earlier and no classes were full.

I'm going to take the LSAT (Law School Admission Test) on June 6th. It's 5 hours. I've taken a few practice tests (actual previously administered LSATs). My brain always hurts by the time I'm finished. And they are physically exhausting which might seem unexpected. Stamina is of critical importance.
I think I'll do well. My goal is to get at least a 175, but I still have a long way to go preparation-wise in the next month to score that high. I'm capable of it if I work hard, though. And the incentives are pretty high since that would probably make me a presumptive in at any law school in America. We'll see. Pretty nerve-racking.

Yea my sister took the LSATs, I fogot what she scored but it got her into Yale so Ive got a tough act to follow but according to her it was nerve-racking but at the same time if you prep well enough and long enough you'll go in and do fine as you're used to the conditions.

I actually passed up the AP tests in favor of advanced credit exams from the University I attended... easier, more specific.
