<p>This fall, I will be an incoming freshmen to UT. As I do my research to see which classes I may place out of, I realize the most students are required to take the SAT Math Subject Test.</p>
<p>I got a 5 on Calculus AB (it's on file on my application).
Therefore, I place out of M408C.
Does this also mean I'm placed out of M408K, M305G, M303D and M316 (the math courses below M408C) without taking the SAT Math Subject Test?</p>
<p>Maybe it's just a petty request, because it's a short and easy test, but I would rather not waste the time nor pay the money if it isn't needed.</p>
<p>With credit for 408C you will not need to take it but it is a very easy way to also get credit for 305G
[SAT</a> Cut Scores](<a href=“http://www.utexas.edu/academic/mec/cbe/cutsat.html]SAT”>http://www.utexas.edu/academic/mec/cbe/cutsat.html)
If you are going to continue in math and use the ap score to get credit for 408C, your next math class could be 408D (get done through multi variate in one year) or 408L (take three semesters to get done through multi variate)</p>
<p>I think I’ll pass on the SAT exam.
I’ll be taking AP Statistics and AP Calculus BC this May and I plan on continuing math studies at UT. Therefore, I feel I can ignore the 305G credit.</p>
<p>Where can we find information as to whether our major requires a mathematics placement exam? I read the information pertaining to the placement exam but am unsure as to whether or not it applies to me.</p>
<p>I’m not saying you should do it but do count your anticipated credits before and after fall semester, adding in your AP and other test credits. In the middle of fall semester, my first-year daughter was able to register for spring with the sophomores. Now, in the middle of spring semester, when it comes time to register for next fall, she’ll be registering with the juniors. </p>
<p>The “older” the class you register with, the more classes are open. If those extra 3 credits from 305G let you be a classified as junior by spring of your first year, they might be worthwhile to you. (Also, once you are a junior, you can register for classes that say they are for upper level students only.)</p>
