<p>Hey guys, on the Wharton transfer page it says that you need to have various credits in order to be considered. Does this mean we can transfer into Wharton even if we are currently attending a liberal arts college, as long as we meet the transfer prerequisites? </p>
<p>One of the criteria was a 5 in Calc BC, 7 in IB HL Maths, or the equivalent to Math 104.
Can anyone help me out with this, I'm a British student and am not used to the AP system. How do I know what class to take at my college to fulfill this requirement (Math 104), as I do not want to sit an AP and would rather take the class in college. </p>
<p>Thanks for all your help guys, I'm sorry to be such a pest with all these questions!! :)</p>
<p>Take two semesters of single variable Calculus, usually Calc I and II. Math 104 assumes that you have had the equivalent of Calc I (Calc AB) in high school.</p>
<p>BC Calculus is most likely the same thing as Calc 1 at most colleges. It would come right after precalc. However, I have heard that Penn is very picky about accepting credits from other schools. So even if you take a similar class at your school, you may still have to take a placement test at Penn if you transfer.</p>
<p>No, BC is the same thing as Calc I and Calc II at most schools. Calc I only covers differential calculus and the beginning of integral calculus. Calc II (Math 104 which is called Calc I at Penn) covers through infinite series. You need both.</p>
<p>Ah right ok that makes sense, so I’ll take Calc 1 and 2. Cheers for all the help guys, do you think it matters that I am looking to transfer from a liberal arts college not another b-school?</p>
