<p>My child took the math placement test twice and needed to get a 70% for his major - he got 61%. what does this mean now? </p>
<p>Without more details, it indicates he will not be permitted to take the courses he desires or continue in the major he desires. He should check with his major advisor now.</p>
<p>Is this the son who is going to be a freshman this coming fall? He needs to talk to an academic advisor. His school might offer remedial math courses so that he can then take the course for his intended major. </p>
<p>He should speak to the college about whether taking a math course over the summer might help as well.</p>
