Calculus Placement Exam

<p>phuriku,</p>

<p>you can in fact do both undergrad and grad analysis. There are 2 ways actually:</p>

<p>1) take 203-205, then 270, 272 </p>

<p>2) take 203-205, 254 (or 257), 262, 270, 272, 274
and finally: 312-314 (the real graduate analysis course; i.e. Big Rudin 1st quarter)</p>

<p>P.S. Oh, this link (<a href="http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/%7Eabhishek/chicmath.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~abhishek/chicmath.htm&lt;/a&gt;) is very helpful.</p>

<p>sorry to revive this, but unfortunately calc ab is the highest offered at my school. i would really like to place into 160's because at the moment i really do love math and feel like i could do decently in the class. im not sure how ab will prepare me though</p>

<p>It's possible. When you're on campus in the fall, you can talk to the math people about placement. They're very good about trying to fit students in the correct section, and they're flexible with letting students try out the 160s and drop down if they feel it's too challenging.</p>

<p>Math = Death.</p>

<p>Help me, Jesus.</p>

<p>I'm in a regular math 16100 class. The palcement test is alot like the AP BC test as far as multiple chocie goes, but the free respones are proof and theory. I did a bit of studying after my highest class being Calc BC, and placed into Math 19900. This is the course between the final quarter of regular calc and analysis. However, some students, like me, decide to take Honors calc (Math 16100-16300) instead, because it offers a more substansive background in UChicago math. Also, first years can take Honors Analysis as a second year if they do well enough in Honors Calc. </p>

<p>Overall, my class was a good challenge. The problem sets were tough, but not insane. Between 8 and 20 hours per week, with more at the beginning of the year. I had real trouble at the start, so it pretty much dominated my time the first two weeks, but if you try hard and have some talent, you'll be ok.</p>

<p>yea, ive seen that most pepole in 161 were in bc.i really hope i get enough background info from ab.</p>

<p>beefs-- i have no idea if you'd be interested , but, Hopkins and Stanford have online math that can work for bc calc and linear algebra. If you really want comfort next year in hnrs calc , you might check it out. You can move as quickly as you like and even do it for summer entertainment (?!).</p>
