Calculus requirements at UT

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

<p>I see that a 5 on the Calc BC AP exam gives credit for M 408K and M 408L. A 3/4 gives credit for M 408C.</p>

<p>Looking at a degree requirement list for Computer Science, I see I would need either (408C and 408D) Or (408N, 408S, 408M)</p>

<p>My understanding is that the NSM sequence is a typical Calc I/II/III system. The C/D is a faster-paced two semester class that goes through the same things. </p>

<p>I am confused about the difference between 408N+408S and 408K+408L. One is described at Calculus I and Calculus II, the other is described as differential Calculus and the other in integral Calculus. Does anyone have an explanation for how this works?</p>

<p>The N-S and K-L courses are interchangeable. The only difference is that the N-S courses are listed as “for science” and reserved specifically for students in the College of Natural Sciences. Otherwise 408N+S and 408K+L are identical (credit-wise). </p>

<p>This link gives a pretty good explanation of the calculus sequences at UT:
