FWIW my wife was a fourth-year the start of her second year at uni because she'd tested out of a ton of basics or taken dual-credit courses in high school. I was a fourth-year the end of my second year.
I AP'd my way out of 6 hours of English, 14 or so hours of Spanish, 8 hours of physics, 8 hours of calculus, and a hodgepodge of psych, sociology, etc., plus I'd taken some uni courses as a high school student as well.
I basically spent two years taking nothing but upper div math classes + a year living in Japan working on a second degree.
AP classes, my friend, save you so much time and money.
- croemer 2y agoOnly saves time if you consider being in university a waste of time instead of an opportunity to be free to learn what you are interested in and surrounded by like-minded people.

- imtringued 2y agoUniversity is definitely not a place where you are free to learn whatever you want, unless you already have all your credit points.
- croemer 2y agoIf you have all the credits done within 2 years you can spend the other 2 years learning whatever you want :)
- KPGv2 2y agoUniversity is an expensive credential to check off a box for most people. I'm not one of those people, and sounds like you aren't, but for most people, it is.
