Planned Courses - Prerequisites

I have AP credits for all of my intro Biology, Chemistry, & Physics prerequisites -- all 24 credits of them. However, some schools such as NYU and Tufts do not accept AP credits. Plus, my undergrad did not have Physiology or Anatomy Lab (that wasn't reserved for Kinesiology majors), and some schools such as Midwestern require them.

I have already graduated, and plan to take all 6 intro BCP courses (2 for each) or Physiology/Anatomy/Microbiology in Spring 2012 -- depending on where I receive (if I do at all) an interview this winter.

My questions are:

1. Can I list ~30 credits worth of courses in my "planned" list for Spring 2012?

2. If I do get into a dental school in December that don't require those courses, I'm not planning on taking any of them. Am I allowed to do this -- reneging on my planned courses?

I thought about not applying to schools that don't accept AP credits, but there are an awful lot of them -- many of which with lower stats that I desperately need.

Thanks for any advice on this!

I think its better if you do not list classes that you're not sure. If you put it in, its like you're making a promise to take those classes. The adcom will take into account planned courses in making decision. So if you get accepted, any changes you make have to be approved by adcom. If not, they will have the right to withdraw the acceptance.
