I’m currently taking linear algebra and differential equations and quantum physic. Is there a way I can get credit for them or can I take a placement test? I’m also studying multivariable calc, but I might want to restudy it.
According to the Stony Brook Math Department website:
“4. Students who learned some linear algebra or multivariate calculus before entering Stony Brook should see an advisor in the Undergraduate
Mathematics Office. For a student who has had some linear algebra, it may be appropriate to skip MAT 211 and to enroll directly in MAT 310.
5. Six credits of graduate MAT courses may be used in place of undergraduate courses in Requirement A7.”
However, just because you are able to place into a higher math class doesn’t mean that you will get college credits for classes that are pre-requisites of that higher class. It is my understanding that you only get college credit if you score high enough on the AP exam for any AP classes.
