Has anyone tested out of the engineering dept's chemistry requirements?

<p>wondering if I can do this this fall.</p>

<p>Everyone who gets a good score on the AP, yeah.</p>

<p>so it’s essentially the same material/an ap chem review book would suffice?</p>

<p>“Because a relatively small number of secondary school students take the Chemistry Advanced Placement Examination, a departmental placement examination is given during freshman orientation week. A student who received an Advanced Placement Examination score of 4 qualifies for one unit of advanced placement and is eligible to take CHM 215 Advanced General Chemistry: Honors Course, which completes the general chemistry curriculum in one semester instead of two. A student who received an Advanced Placement Examination score of 5 qualifies for two units of advanced placement and is eligible to take 301 or 303. One term of advanced placement satisfies the B.S.E. chemistry requirement.”</p>

<p>So you either need to have taken the AP test or learn the AP material and take the departmental test at the beginning of the year.</p>
