I will be attending UCSB next year for Mathematics, and I want to try to place out of the American History and Institutions GE Requirement. However, I never took a US History standardized test in high school and I really don’t want to take the Department of History’s exam because of the intimidating reading list. Does anyone know if I can just sign up for the US History SAT Subject Test for this August and use that? Or does anyone know if UCSB’s Department’s test is easy?
Thanks!
If you took US History or APUSH in HS, that should satisfy the requirement for American History.
