Is it true engineering majors have to retake calculus?

<p>Most universities give advisory or required math placement tests for students who do not have any AP, IB, or college calculus credit, in order to determine if they can take calculus 1 or if they need to take remedial math courses before taking calculus 1. Offering placement tests for those who may take a course more advanced than calculus 1 is much less common, though if the student can get the university’s old calculus 1 (and 2 if applicable) final exams and try them, that can be used as an advisory placement test for the student.</p>
