<p>okay i just tried the do the study guide for the pre calculus placement test and most of the material was easy and a few ive learn but was too lazy to review, i might tomorrow...i was wondering how many questions can i get wrong on the pre calc placement test to still get straight into calculus?</p>
<p>I think I had to get 24 out of 40 right. So 16 wrong. I got 33 right and I hadn't taken Calculus or trig for over a year. (I took Stats my senior year after taking Calc my junior year) Time wasn't really a problem, but I think I only finished with less than 5 minutes left.</p>
<p>I got in! 29/40 right</p>
<p>Question, okay in high school the regular stundets might start with algebra...and the "advanced" ahead students were placed in or above geometry...i was the algebra kid (because i luckily took intro algebra in summer before 9th)...now that im going to start ccc with calculus, im i considered advance and ahead...in other words what class do regular students start with usually in college?</p>
<p>im happy i got in english 101 and calculus which are the highest!</p>
<p>You are right on target for a college freshman in that college level math is usually anything above Algebra II. You're not ahead, you are not behind. You are where colleges would like to see most incoming freshman to be at.</p>
<p>That said, being one class up or one class behind in a class sequence when starting college matters almost zilch in the long run... it is <em>finishing</em> your path and getting to transfer and getting to your final degree that matters. </p>
<p>So, if what you want to know is that you are on track, congrats - you're doing great. Just keep up the good work. If you want to know if you are way ahead of the crowd, well, no - there are 10 year olds getting their college degrees, so there's always someone ahead of the pack unless you are that 10 year old genius. :)</p>

<p>Wait, what's the cc placement test?</p>
<p>^cc (Community College) placement test</p>
<p>You take these tests to see which level of math and english are most appropriate given your current math and english skills.</p>
<p>I thought the math one was pretty hard since I haven't done trig. and algebra 2 stuff in over 3 years.</p>
