AMP Test

<p>Have any of you taken the AMP test?
If you have, how was it and what did you end up getting credit for?</p>

<p>I didn’t take the test, but it really just looks like it’s meant to give you an idea of where you should start your math courses. The best I could find about any potential credit is this:</p>

TEST RESULTS.
Each AMP taker is assigned to an Algebra Group (A1 through A4) and to a Trigonometry Group (T1 through T3). The Department of Mathematics recommends course placement for people scoring in the various AMP groups. (See xxx for placement information.) The AMP results will not negate placement obtained through other means, but a low AMP result may lead the student to reconsider a placement that may be too high. Students scoring in AMP Algebra Group A4 receive three hours of college credit for MAC 1105.

<p>I do know that when I took Calc I, we were required to put down how we had met the requirements to take the class, and I think that the AMP results were one of the options (along with taking the lower math classes and having earned AP/IB test credit).</p>
