Anecdotal evidence, I tested out of a bunch of courses with AP credits. The only ones I actually went directly to the next level were Economics. I scored 5's on micro and macro and skipped the 100 level of both. I did the intermediate and it went just fine (I got A's). Could I pass the final exam for the previous level with a 90% right when I got there? I am really not sure. Presumably I would have been studying and preparing for that weeks in advance and the content would be fresh in my mind (not after a summer of not studying). I don't feel like I missed anything and saved a lot of time (and money).
