math placement test

<p>if we get a 5 in ap calc, do we still need to take the mathematics placement test?</p>

<p>no you don’t</p>

<p>What are the methods of exemption from taking the math placement test?</p>

<p>5 on ab and 4 or 5 on bc i believe</p>

<p>I guess I’m not exempt. I’m sort of confused on this math diagnostics exam. What does it determine? What’s on the exam itself? If I’m a chemistry major hoping to change to chemistry/materials science, what math class do I have to take? The only calculus class I took was in junior year, elementary calculus.</p>

<p>For life science, 3 series or 30 series. For engineering, 30 series.</p>

<p>The placement test just makes sure you are ready to take these. If you don’t pass the placement test, you take remedial math. I mean, precalculus.</p>

<p>So that means physical sciences such as chemistry should also take 30 series math. What can I do to prepare myself to pass the mathematics exam?</p>

<p>We take these at orientation correct?</p>

<p>If we are exempt from our english placement exam, do we have to do anything besides report our AP scores?</p>

<p>does anybody know a place we can check for sure?</p>

<p>they’ll tell you at orientation… if they tell you you need to take it then just take the test… it is very easy…</p>
