Over 64 college credits in HS, where do I put it in AMCAS?

I attended a special program in high school where I spent my last two years of HS attending a college full time, and then graduated from HS normally with 64 credit hours from that university, along with some AP credits from freshman/sophomore year of HS. I already asked the AAMC how to put this on my app, they just said to enter all the classes with a HS designation.

What I'm wondering is how that will appear to med schools? Should I explain this a special situation somewhere else on my application so the schools I'm applying to clearly understand it? I essentially lived in a dorm with other HS students and took college classes for two years, then graduated HS and applied to a different college, so I'm worried it might end up looking like I'm a normal college transfer student. I would like to make it clear that those classes were taken while still in high school.
