quick question....

<p>Here's the situation...</p>

<p>I had orientation in late may, so I've had a set schedule at FSU for quite a while. However, I just received an email from one of the Honors coordinators, describing the Honors classes that have remaining seats available. Among those classes is a math class. </p>

<p>During my senior year of high school, I took AP Calculus AB, and I'm positive I'll pass the AP exam (i'm just not sure whether it'll be a 4 or a 5...hopefully not a 3). Anyway, I didn't originally sign up for any math classes in colleges, and now I'm rethinking that idea. </p>

<p>Anyway, my question is: since my passed AP test takes care of MAC 1105 (right?), then is the next math class I can take MAC 2311?</p>

<p>I just want to make sure I'm progressing in the right order. Even though it's an honors course, I think the reduced class size will make up for the (possibly) harder material. </p>

<p>Thanks for any feedback!</p>

<p>For CALCULUS - AB you get credit for MAC 2311 (4) for a score of 3, 4 or 5.
FSU</a> Admissions | Credit | AP Credit</p>

<p>If you need additional math credit to meet liberal studies requirements and your major does not have any specific math requirement, I would take the CLEP for PreCalculus which gives you credit for MAC 1147 (5) with a score of 50 or better.</p>

<p>If you scored a 680 on the MATH section of the SAT or 30 on the MATH section of the ACT you would receive credit for MAC1105 (3).</p>

<p>Ohh...Thank you for that information, I should've known to check that myself.</p>

<p>Since I'm not sure what I'm majoring in, I just wanted to continue taking math courses, so that in case I end up choosing a major with math requirements, I can have them fulfilled, and won't have to take a math class having not been in one for two years. Plus, after being in a math class every single year of school, I feel a little odd not taking one now. =/</p>

<p>So is there a certain math that comes after MAC 2311?</p>

<p>Typically if you're continuing in the math sequence, you'll move to MAC2312 (calculus II) after MAC2311. As cybermom noted above, if you score a 3 or better, you receive credit for MAC2311. </p>

<p>This might not apply to you because you're pretty certain you passed the AP exam with a 4 or 5, but another option is to decline the credit for MAC2311 and begin with that course. This is particularly useful if you were surprised by your score, don't think you understand all the fundamentals (because calculus builds on previous knowledge), or if you think extra instruction will prove useful based on your intended major.</p>

<p>As for the honors courses this fall, I took differential equations with Muslimani last spring and have had several friends take Wolfgang's classes so let me know if you have questions about either of those professors.</p>

<p>Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to know :]</p>
