<p>If I'm going to be receiving AP credit for MAC2311 and MAC2233 is required for my major (I plan to double major in Political Science and Economics), do I have to take it?</p>
<p>I was under the impression that MAC2311 is a more advanced course than MAC2233. I really, really don't want to have to redo Calculus like that.</p>
<p>Also, if I do have to take MAC2233, is there anyway to place out of it by taking the Calculus Readiness test?</p>
<p>Thanks so much for your responses!</p>
<p>From what I've seen, MAC2311 can substitute for MAC2233, meaning you won't need to take it if you don't want to.</p>
<p>Yeah, technically 2311 (engineering/science) is harder than 2233 (business) because 2233 is taught without trig functions (from what I hear). So it shouldnt be a problem to sub 2311 for 2233 and then take 2234 to finish the requirement.</p>
<p>If you are in a math-heavy major, consider backing up one calc level. I.e., if you could go straight into calc 3, consider calc 2 instead. Both my sons who are very strong in math (AP calc BC - 5, SAT math 750+) would have been better off retaking calc 2, getting a great grade, and then going into calc 3 and diffy q's with a really strong foundation.</p>
<p>If calc is the last math class you'll ever take, the situation may be different.</p>
<p>YMMV</p>
<p>Thanks for the responses. </p>
<p>STA2023 and MAC2233 are the only two math classes required for my majors... I plan to take other stats classes at UF, but would love to be done with Calculus entirely, so getting the credit would be best, I think, rather than retaking them.</p>
