<p>Passing out of differential equations (18.03) is possible via an advanced standing exam (ASE). I believe you may also have to complete some homework as well. More details on the ASE policies for the Class of 2012 should be posted on the [“First</a> Year”](<a href=“http://mit.edu/firstyear/2012/index.html]"First”>http://mit.edu/firstyear/2012/index.html) website in the upcoming months.</p>
