As you know, many (if not most) math classes build on each other, so it’s really important to make sure you have a solid foundation if you plan to use an AP score to skip a class. @ucbalumnus 's advice is good - review that stuff and see if it’s all coming back to you, especially since you say you’re not really a math person. D took 1A and 1B, even thought she got 5’s on the A/B and B/C tests, because she was 1) paranoid that the Cal math would be so much harder, and 2) she wanted to make sure her math foundation was there because multivariable was the looming in the not-too-distant future. She got A’s in both, but she had to do the homework and study for the tests. It all depends upon your comfort level with the material and risk.
