<p>What kind of placement tests do you take during BCT? english, math?</p>
<p>Tests I recall my basic taking were calculus, algebra, chemistry, foreign language. Note, study up on algebra -- some did well on calculus, but bombed algebra, and had to take a remedial algebra course.</p>
<p>It pays to do well on the chemistry, especially if you took AP Chem. A good score can mean you take one semester of lab course, instead of 2 semesters of chem.</p>
<p>comp sci is another one (although my memory has faded in the past 4 years)</p>
<p>I recommend trying the comp sci test even if you've never taken a related class. A lot of it concerns general computer knowledge. For example, they might ask you if 64 megabytes of RAM and a 500 MHz processor would be typical for a new computer. Most of you know that it would not. Also, there are a lot of logical puzzles that can be solved without specific knowledge of a programming language. I have a friend who validated it without ever taking a comp sci class. If you can, that's just one less class on your schedule and a little more flexibility. Of course if you want to, you can still take it.</p>
<p>Anyone have working links to the practice tests? The previous link that was posted gives me a "forbidden" error message ( <a href="http://atlas.usafa.af.mil/dfms/Academics/Placement/exam_prep.htm%5B/url%5D">http://atlas.usafa.af.mil/dfms/Academics/Placement/exam_prep.htm</a> )</p>
<p>There are two links to the math placement test and neither of them has been working for a couple of weeks. I put in a message to the webmaster, but haven't gotten a reply. Surely, they'll get this straightened out.</p>
<p>Does anyone know of any practice tests for subjects other than math on the AFA website? Like English and other subjects.</p>
<p>The only placement test online is the foreign language one.</p>
<p>Look into the AP exam study guides as a review for other subjects.</p>
