At Purdue, in order to pass out of inorganic (baby) chemistry, you just need to take the test out exam (and not necessarily the AP Chemistry exam) and score better than a 60%. This is a D!!!
However, if you really did enjoy D-Bake's class, take the class because they are usually 4-5 credits each and that A that you earn (especially when most people SUCK at chemistry and the curve helps you big time) will indeed boost your GPA to happiness.
Even if your pre-medical advisor tells you that medical school requires you to take the class, just taking the time to take the [free] college-offered exam gives you an idea of where you would stand in the class. If you don't pass, then you know you have to work harder in this class. If you do, consider it a light-to-moderate amount of studying that you have to devote to this class.
Testing out of everything saves you time (classes, studying), grief ([group] projects), and money (course fees).
