Math Placement UNC

<p>How does UNC place you into math courses your freshman year meaning like what ranges on the SATII Math II get you into which classes and what scores on AP calc get you into what classes any information would be great and the same with the languages</p>

<p>The highest that test will get you in is Cal I or math 231. Your Ap may exempt you from 231 and 232Cal BC AP and make a 5 you will get credit (6 hrs) for 231 and 232....less gets you prob one of those. AP cal AB , may get you 231 but not sure about 232. Again this is online under credit for AP.....<br>
You also can earn class credit in english or math.from your SAT scores...Your math SAT may get you credit for Math 110. You will take a lang. placement test at registration....between that, AP's and IB's you prob will exempt for. lang if you are half way decent at it. Don't blow off the for. lang placement test. Take and and try to do well. There is good info on the web. AP/IB credit. also the book that you can access for CTOPS has all of that, the Freshman handbook.</p>

<p>thanks so much for the quick replies</p>

<p>Here is the schedule from the UNC site:</p>

<p>UNC</a> Undergraduate Admissions</p>

<p>A 3 on AP Calc AB gets you out of Math 231 and placed into 232, A 3 on AP Calc BC gets you credit for Math 232, and generally unless you are majoring in math you do not need anything past 232. As far as SAT II goes, a 600 or above get you placed into Math 231/.</p>

<p>what about for engineering will i need to go higher then 232?</p>

<p>ok so any pass on a calc AP gives you some sort of credit. but if we take stat, we get no math credit right? therefore making us take the math 2 if we havent already?</p>

<p>You can exempt the basic stat course so worth it on that....
D1 did not take SAT II because we didn't catch that in time to sign up for it.
D2 took it. Both had taken AP calculus so really had no effect. IF you did not take an AP Cal, then I would take it....you may exempt some lower math courses....MATH 110? GZEPHIR, you can investigate that by going to the department of your major and looking at the recommended prereq. I would imagine it might require discreet math and maybe some higher level diff eq for engineering but who knows.....the depts.</p>

<p>gzephir, are you aware that UNC does not offer the traditional engineering majors?</p>
