<p>I'm waitlisted number 18 for sociology 1. The limit for the class is 320, there's 132 enrolled and 188 available seats. What is the possibility I can get the class?
Also, if I'm planning to major in stats and since math 1a is a major requirement and I required to take this class if I passed out of it from ap testing?</p>
<p>The general rule of thumb is that 10% of the class limit will clear the waitlist - for Sociology, that predicts a position up to about 32 on the waitlist has got a good shot to get in. </p>
<p>The math department grants credit for Math 1A based on passing the AP tests. [Advanced</a> Placement (AP) Examinations - UC Berkeley Department of Mathematics](<a href=“http://math.berkeley.edu/courses_AP.html]Advanced”>http://math.berkeley.edu/courses_AP.html) A few departments, but not statistics, have their own separate rules for what score constitutes an acceptable substitute. As long as you have at least a 3 on AB, you don’t need to take it.

<p>Nothing on the statistics department list of prereqs identifies any restriction on using AP credit in lieu of taking Math 1A. [Statistics</a> Major](<a href=“http://www.stat.berkeley.edu/94#Prereqs]Statistics”>http://www.stat.berkeley.edu/94#Prereqs)</p>
