<p>when did you take the placement tests?</p>

22

<p>I took mine two years ago lol.</p>

23

<p>Okay???</p>

24

<p>I took my tests and went through ftcap in 08 but I got called up for a deployment for OIF 08-09. Now that I’m back I have to go through ftcap again. Ughhhh</p>

25

<p>Oh now that makes sense. Do you know if you have to abide by the math placement or can you take a higher level math than what is recommends.</p>

26

<p>got my card today…I have may 20th too!</p>

27

<p>The advisors will suggest what they think you should take. You don’t have to listen to them. </p>

<p>That makes two for the 20th</p>

28

<p>yeah I was surprised I got such an early date because I’m going in the fall.</p>

29

<p>My daughter just got her card today. Anyone else have May 17th? Tried getting a reservation for either the Nittany Lion or the Penn Stater and both are booked… turns out graduation is from the 14th to the 16th.</p>

30

<p>For those of you that got your dates already when did you take the tests? I took mine this past week and was wondering when I’ll hear:)</p>

31

<p>i have may 21st also the day of my prom. =(</p>

32

<p>mikej, I took my tests last friday, the 19th, and my card was postmarked the 24th</p>

33

<p>I was planning to do a little review for my tests and take them in a week or so. Is that necessary?</p>

34

<p>I didn’t review at all. But if you feel you need to, it wouldn’t hurt.</p>

35

<p>It’s mostly for chem…it’s been a little while since I had it. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

36

<p>yup, no problem. good luck!</p>

37

<p>is PSU going to send more information about times/locations closer to our actual date? or is that information on the website somewhere?</p>

38

<p>Idk, same question.</p>

39

<p>I live in india so i guess i still haven’t got the FTCAP postcard. i logged on and found out that my testing deadline was over. but i still gave the FTCAP today. will my test be considered? i cant call and inform them since the contact numbers are in USA.</p>

<p>You can use this link to ask Penn State admissions your question.</p>

<p>Personally I don’t think missing the deadline is any big deal. The tests are only advisory anyway. They use the results to help with initial placement in courses but you don’t have to take their suggestions.</p>
