Honors Analysis is meant to be HARD like on par with Harvard’s legendary “Math 55” hard. The problem I have in with the OP’s post and higher level math is about the when he mentions memorization and regurgitation, that type of math doesn’t cut it in Olympiad-style papers and I’m fairly certain that Honors Analysis is filled with ex-USAMOers if not ex-MOPers…

In any event the math placement people are very good at what they do. Wherever you are placed that is most likely the best class for you. The one hitch is that if you are placed in regular anaylsis you may wish to take honors calculus such that you could take honors analysis in sophomore year.
