Math Placement Exam Question

I scored a 200 on the math placement, meaning, as far as I know, that I'll be in Math 3. My major will be Environmental Studies, and therefore I will need to take "AMS 2 or 3." Will my score on the math placement test allow me to enroll in my required math class?

For AMS 2: "Prerequisite(s): Mathematics 2 or placement exam score of 20 or higher."

For AMS 3: "Prerequisite(s): score of 20 or higher on Mathematics Placement Exam or Mathematics 2."

For Math 3: "Prerequisite(s): course 2 or placement exam score of 20 or higher."

For classes being offered Spring, Summer or Fall 2012, it is easiest to search the online schedule at https://pisa.ucsc.edu/class_search/index.php to see what the prerequisites for classes are. Make sure you include Status "All Classes" to list the closed classes so you can look at all the class descriptions.

It looks like Math 3 = AMS 3, both Precalculus.
