<p>Hi all, i've recently commited to UCSD and i'm planning to take economics as my major!</p>
<p>I'm a bit concerned about my math ability since i've been detached from "typical" HS math courses ( I am currently taking applied math that has very little to do with calculus or college level math) And as a result i'm planning to just take MATH 3C first quarter freshman year(precalculus) ...HOWEVER...</p>
<p>In the plan for econ majors it says that i will have to take Math 10 A by the first quarter so my questions are...</p>
<p>1.Is it ok if I take math 3c before hand even if it may delay my math courses until sophomore year OR must I take Math 10 A immediately?</p>
<ol>
<li><p>I have not taken the math placement exam, however is it possible to "fail" it and affect my eligibility for classes or entrance? and is the lowest possible math class at UCSD MATH 3C? ( if i do "fail")</p></li>
<li><p>Is the plan just for guidance or must it be adhered to?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>cheers! p.s i am planning to take some pre-calc and calc prep though before heading off to ucsd</p>
