<p>If I get a 5 on AP Calculus BC, will I get credit for Cal 1-2 (freshman math)?</p>
<p>I’ve also taken Linear Algebra and Multivariable Cal at local city colleges, and those two courses are what sophomore math at Berkeley Engineering consists of.</p>
<p>Will there be a placement test?</p>
<p>You may check the above web site to find out or you can contact Math Dept to confirm.</p>
<p>yes, 5 ap calc bc gets you out of Math 1A and 1B. some engineers still take those two for a gpa boost and for the extra time on series and diff eq's. a lot regret it, though, because half the time, it's so hard it doesn't actually boost your gpa, otherwise, you're really smart and just plain bored. i personally skipped out and didn't regret it at all, except for the DE's because i know that will come back to haunt me in another semester or two.</p>
<p>no placement tests, but make sure everything (transcipts from your CC, AP results) gets cleared with the department.</p>
<p>Yes. It's probably better to read the CoE handbook rather than Assist for AP credit. Assist is great for CC => UC transfer classes, but rely on CoE handbook because its decided by College what they take.</p>
<p>5 on BC gets you out of Math 1A and 1B. You can take Math 53 directly.</p>
