<p>I'm a incoming freshman to University Park, and I have a few questions about the FTCAP.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>How is the FTCAP used in placement?</p></li>
<li><p>What are the subjects?</p></li>
<li><p>Is there "study" tips and such?</p></li>
<li><p>When are the testing dates?</p></li>
<li><p>When will the "results" be posted to me?</p></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>It’s for the academic advisors that shows how good you are in each subject.</p></li>
<li><p>English, Math, and Chem</p></li>
<li><p>Studying is a waste of time in my opinion. Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Chem, and English during HS is more than enough. I took mine in 2008 so I’m not sure how acurate this still is anymore. </p></li>
<li><p>You get a postcard from Penn state that tells you everthing you need to know.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>5 On ftcap day the personel gives you a sheet that Shows you how you did in comparison of everyone else along with a lot of other statistics. </p>
<p>Sources: I did ftcap in 2008 but I got deployed for oif 08-09 right after I graduated and now I have to go through the adivising day again. It’s going to be a funnnn day.</p>
