There are numerous AMCAS threads on this, but I couldn't find any DO ones.

The instructions are just way too vague and not detailed enough. What do we put for the course name and prefix for AP credit if the transcripts don't have the course/exam names listed? I had a letter from registrar sent to AACOMAS, but the letter doesn't have Prefixes.
 
Did your institution actually recognize your AP work? If they did, they would have assigned a course equivalency.

Yeah they did, but the courses they assigned them to aren't in the letter that the registrar sent to AACOMAS. The letter just contains the AP exam name. I just don't know what to include for a prefix.

On my transcript, the AP work is just pooled together like AP credits: XX units.
 
Same here, mine gives a prefix, ie bio: ap biology. It doesn't give the course number, even though my major accepts it as the first semester bio an allowed me to take second semester. Hopefully DO schools recognize that.
