at my school 3 tests (get a 3 or above) just about knocks out 1 semester. however, some schools dont accept AP tests at all so it depends what school you're looking at

I suggest you to do running start system (or however your school calls it), instead. It's so much better! I was in one. All you need to do is to take assessment exams, pass them, and attend your local college. You will get both high school AND college credits at the same time. Also, most of colleges offer the classes that you need to take in high school in order to graduate so it's like killing two birds with one stone. Once you do this, there is no exams to pass since you've already taken the class at the college level.
But if you don't want to bother with this, I suggest you to take AP exams of biology, chemistry, calculus, and some english classes. If you think these are too much, then choose 3 out of these.

well since you need about 120+ credits to pass most colleges...
if you pass most ap's they can be anywhere from 3-10 credit hours each... (math & science ones are usually worth more)... for instance, im going into college this fall with about 40 credit hours so im like 1/3 done with college ^^ i took 8 ap's in high school... but even if you take about half of that you can probly skip most of the freshmen classes

Check the colleges AP policy. Most AP Tests take off 1 semester, but i think higher level ones like Calc BC take off 2. Some of the colleges want a 4 or 5 to get credit, like my school rejected my AP Psych score because i had a 3.
