Math Placement Test

<p>So what type of Math is on the placement test during orientation? Pre Cal or Calculus AB stuff? Also, what happens if we do horrible on the placement test/do not pass the test? Do we get placed in a lower class below Math 31A?</p>

<p>... i don't think you should worry about it... unless you didn't take pre cal in highschool you should pass easily, no calc stuff, not even limits or simple derivatives</p>

<p>yes! good..</p>

<p>if you do terribly, you take math 1 which is precalc. asdsadjaslkdnkas</p>

<p>Jee but I took Pre Cal my junior year, I practically forgot everything I learned!</p>

<p>If you're worried about the math placement test, switch to the English major! :D</p>

<p>up to trig</p>

<p>piece of cake, i remember when i took it, i was hungover from the night before, yes, drunk during orientation, in my OC's room too, i passed with flying colors.</p>

<p>It is SUPER easy. I just took the exam at orientation 101. There is some pre-calc, geometry, algebra. I don't remember any calculus. There are 60 questions and you need to get 36+ right to be in math 31a (which is calculus based). If not, you're placed in math 1, which is pre-calc.</p>

<p>i have yet to meet anyone that didn't get 36+ on that test... but yes if you don't pass it switch to english major because you won't do good in math lmao... jack which orientation did you go to last year?</p>

<p>gosh, i hope it's as easy as everyone says.</p>

<p>your OC allowed alcohol?</p>
