<p>Lets say your signing up for some RWS or Math class, and as you look at the description of the class it might say something like how you need a certain score on the ELM or EPT test as a prerequisite requirement. Does that mean they'll check eventually to see if you have met the requirements or can you just go ahed and sign up for the classes if lets say you havent taken it or didnt pass it</p>
<p>im sure they will check it eventually, but i think the tests were taken in may, if i were you i would go ahead and look at the lower level class and see if it fits into your schedule and wait to see if they drop you from the course. or just call the advising office, they were really helpful when i called them.</p>
<p>yeah the class i was signing up for was MATH 120..it said i needed to take a MATH PLACEMENT PART IA. I was still able to add it on to my classes somehow even tho i never took it.</p>
<p>Mathematics Departmental Placement Examination, Part IA</p>
<p>hmm i dont even know what that is..
my SAT scores passed me for the ELM math thing.. so i thought i was fine to take it..
crap this sucks if we're not allow to take the class</p>
<p>k dude i found this:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sa.sdsu.edu/testofc/mathreq.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.sa.sdsu.edu/testofc/mathreq.html</a></p>
<p>guess we'll have to take the tests.. we can still take the test, but u better sign up for a test before or on sept 2.. so yea we can still take the class</p>
<p>but man $20 for a test.. i feel so ripped off paying for this n that</p>
<p>nah im not taking it for a couple reasons..i know of a guy who failed the test and was still able to take the class and graduate..and i know of another guy who didnt even take the test and was able to take the class...they both told me that some professors check and some professors dont check if you have the test, but the majority of them DONT.</p>
<p>its just the jerk professors that check. and esp if you're in a math class with over 100 people, theres no way they will waste their time checking to see if that so many people have it or not</p>
<p>ok then thats great
i chose this proffessor after looking his name up at ratemyprofessors.com
and he was a nice dude, from what they said.
so guess we're cool</p>
<p>are u taking math 120 too?</p>
