The placement exam at best will put you in Math 115, as opposed to pre-calc. I don’t think it can put you at Calc 2. If you place into Calc 1 with the placement exam, you’ll be allowed to choose honors versions of it. The placement exam’s purpose is to get you into Calc 1. If you get a 4 or 5 on the AP test for either the AB or BC, you’ll be done with at least Calc 1 anyway. So at that point, the placement exam becomes useless. I still think it’s a good idea to take ALL available placement tests.
