Hey everyone, I am a current high school senior and have a few questions about being placed in certain math classes.

I read in an article by the LA times where students don’t have to take the math and english placement tests anymore. They are going to be placed by their SAT/ACT score and/or most recent high school math/english class. I wanted to know more about this as I am currently taking AP Calculus AB and would like to be placed in at least Calc 1 for my first college class. Any information regarding this?

I believe you still have the choice of taking the AP Calculus credit if you pass the exam and moving onto the Calc 2 or not taking the credit and starting at Calc 1.
