<p>hey guys, and tia for all ur help</p>

<p>im a registered bio major right now, but im also planning on doubling in chem. however, during the orientation, i went to all the bio help sessions cause i completely forgot the demands for chem. my main question is: do i have to take math 31a over again as a chem major if you got a 5 on the calc ab ap test. for bio majors u have to pass on to 31b if u got a 5 on the calc ab ap test. </p>

<p>the reason i asked was because for engineering majors, math 31a is required course for all, even if you obtained a 5 on the calc ab ap test (according to my friend). im just wondering if this applies to chem majors also..</p>

<p>No, it doesn't apply. The general requirements and regulations are based on the college/school. Since biology and chemistry are within the College (L&S), the same rules apply. Engineering majors are part of HSSEAS.</p>
