How do most PT schools feel about the use of AP credit for pre-reqs? I have ap credit in Biology and would prefer not to retake the class if not absolutely necessary.

Well, honestly, when I entered my freshman year of college, I had 43 AP credit hours worth under my belt. Half of my prerequisites for PT school was fulfilled by my AP credits.
I got accepted early to all my schools even with my prereqs covered by my APs, so I would think it's fine.
AP Credits earned are credits earned in my eyes. If you got the credit to skip the college course, then you got the credit. 🙂
Hi I passed my AP BIOLOGY exams and got 5 credit hours. However, it doesn't show a separate lab. Is this the case for you? Do you have to take the lab to fulfill the prerequisites requirements?

it doesn't matter. pre-reqs are just hoops to jump through aka a box to be checked.
Check with the schools you want to apply to. Everyone on this board can give you their opinion, but in the end only the school can give you a final blessing.
