UCSD Math Entry test

<p>Alright i'm a bit confused...on my portal it mentions that there will be an english entry test unless you scored a 3+ on the AP Exam (I did). There isn't, however, any mention of a math placement test. Do incoming freshman have to take a math placement or is that not necessary?</p>

<p>If you wish to take calculus, then you must take the math placement test. What is your intended major? If you took AP calculus in High School, and scored a 2 or higher, then you are waived from taking the test.</p>

<p>I didn’t take AP Calc. Undeclared but i’m thinking of Poli Sci/Econ or Poli Sci/Psych and then pursue an MBA or Law Degree.</p>

<p>Well, most senior high school students are still in AP Calc. Math placement is probably later.</p>

<p>i think the only reason why you wouldn’t have to take it during this summer is if you took the ap calc test last year (i.e. as a high school junior).
from what i know, ap scores from this year won’t be in on time for you to be exempt from the placement exam.
there’s a site about the math placement exam with a F.A.Q.</p>
