<p>As far as I know, Pitt does not have an English placement exam. At least, my D did not take one.</p>
<p>The Algebra placement exam is generally required if you don’t have at least a 600 math subscore on the SAT (26 Math ACT). A trig placement test is required for students planning to enroll in calculus. However, my D enrolled in Calc I the spring semester of her freshman year and no placement test was required. If you don’t have the minimum SAT/ACT score and don’t pass the algebra placement test, you will be placed in remedial algebra.</p>
<p>Pitt doesn’t require a language if you have taken 3 years on HS. However, if you are required or want to take a language at Pitt, you should take a placement test to determine the proper level to enroll in. More information about placement tests is at this link.
