How are we placed in math/english?

<p>so my friends who are attending UC’s have to take some placement test to see what math they’re going to be in, but it didn’t seem like i had to do this for cal poly… how are we placed in math and english? cause i really don’t want to take calculus anymore because i absolutely despised it throughout high school</p>

<p>I think it depends a lot on your ACT/SAT scores, as well as what classes you have already completed in high school and if you have taken any AP’s. It would probably be a good idea to meet with your advisor and they will tell you which classes you should register for.</p>

<p>Even if you have to take a placement test it’s really not that bad. I had to do it for math.</p>

<p>^^ How do you know if you have to take a placement test, particularly for math? You said you took it already? Was this online?</p>
