<p>Hello..</p>
<p>I'll be majoring music in this fall, but I was just curious about the placement tests.</p>
<p>Have you guys finished all of your placement tests?</p>
<p>I'm freaking out because I barely remember all math stuff.
I didn't take math this year because I was too busy with my competitions.</p>
<p>If you guys took it already could you please tell me how they are?</p>
<p>Also English, do I really have to read all that 10-page article?</p>
<p>brianna did u finish that placement test, wana give me some feedback? i need to take it soon</p>
<p>I just finished the writing placement. The article wasn’t hard to read. I actually found it interesting. The essay took me about 45 minutes. I’m not the greatest writer and I didn’t think it was too bad. The questions they ask afterwards are not even about the article, just your writing habits. Stay focused and you can get it done easily</p>
<p>The math placement was a bit tricky if you don’t remember your trig. I would definitely review trig & algebra two before taking it. But again, it wasn’t that bad.</p>
<p>I thought the Chem and Math placement were really easy, but I’m going into Engineering… The Latin, that sucked. Though admittedly, I didn’t really know Latin. </p>
<p>If you’re doing a music major, will you have to take a math class ever at all? If not, it shouldn’t matter if you do terrible on the math placement. If you have a good grasp of Algebra you should be fine. There wern’t many trig questions so if you don’t know trig well, you might be able to just get those questions wrong and still be okay.</p>
<p>QwertyKey, how much Latin did you take in high school, and what kind of stuff was on the Latin Placement exam? Should I review anything especially before taking it?</p>
<p>I took 3 years of Latin, but at our school we really don’t learn a whole lot. It’d probably be equivical to 2 years at a lot of other high schools. </p>
<p>The first parts wern’t too bad, there was identifying words (like case and such), then translating sentences. Then there was a prose passage and a poem to translate. I couldn’t do those at all.</p>
<p>Hmmmm…I’m from Ann Arbor, too. I know EXACTLY what you’re talking about, even though I took four years there. So, brush up on vocab, sounds like.</p>
<p>No, they gave you all the vocab you need (there was a whole thick book, not a dictionary but almost). </p>
<p>It’s just lots of translating, and it can be a little ambigious.</p>
