<p>How far in advance of PittStart do the placement exams need to be taken?</p>
<p>This was from the email from Pitt:</p>
<p>Before arriving for your PittStart please complete the online placement exams. You will review the results of your placement exams with your advisor in your one-on-one meeting. The deadlines to take the online placement exam are:</p>
<pre><code> Sunday, June 1st for all June PittStart Sessions
Sunday, July 20th for all July PittStart Sessions
Friday, August 15th for the August 19th PittStart Session
</code></pre>
<p>You can also take them at PittStart. After the initial meeting, advisors were taking students who needed to take their exams.</p>
<p>You can also place out of a lot of them depending on how high your SATs are. I think if you’re over 600 on math or critical reading, that gets you out of the math one, and possibly place you higher in freshman comp. You should double-check, because my memory may be faulty.</p>
<p>For engineering you have to take both math tests but you can skip the english if you have over a 600 cr. The advisors have a print out of your placement tests results along with your SAT scores at the advising meeting.</p>
