<p>If you score high enough, the optional calculus exam will give you credit for MATH M211, so you would not have to take calculus at IU at all if you score high enough. If you are a Kelley student, MATH-M 211 fulfills the MATH-M 119 requirement. If you don’t score high enough, taking the optional calculus exam won’t force you into taking M211 if you want to take M119. So again, if you are certain you want to take calculus at IU, there is no need to take the optional exam. But this will be your only chance to get credit for calculus without having to actually take calculus at IU.
