A bit of a complicated question about math placement

So this is why it is a bit confusing. Say someone took pre-calc (college pre-calc, not high school) and got a C or above, but the placement test didn’t place them in Calc…they would literally have to take the same class over again at UMD? The pre-req for MATH140 is MATH115. The equivalent of MATH115 is the math he took, and while he got a D, it did/will transfer. It’s likely a moot point, because the sample test was absolutely no issue for him (just a couple log questions), but everything else was simple for him.
