Looking at the syllabus for 17, it seems like they stress biological examples over calc theory, they also do stuff that's in the 22 series, like some Linear Algebra and ODEs, plus other stuff like discrete math and combinatorics (Don't know how much they actually cover). On the other, hand 16AB is basically high school calc, and C is some multivar and series.

So in order to be placed in a higher math class you have to score 35 or higher, but out of what exactly?

^Thanks!

So is 17c better than 17b or do they just focus on different things (so not one class is better than the other)?

The calc series has to be taken in order, B is a prereq for C
