Should I use my AP credit and move up?

[phobos]

<p>

my primary concern is that I may have forgotten a few calculus concepts over the last year, though I’m sure with some reviewing I can pick up from where I left off very easily. Given my situation, what option do you think is best? And if I decide to go into Calculus III, will an e-mail to an advisor get me access to sign up for III (I am currently registered for II)?

yeah, that’s a lot of what my worry is. but i’m pretty sure a little review would get me up to speed. and to repeat, what exactly would i need to do to change my classes? i’m thinking about calling them to see what the advisor’s opinion is, but i don’t know what number to call and who to talk to.</p>

Did you get a 5 on the AB subsection of the BC test, or did you take the AB test by itself? The reason I ask is because I think you are already supposed to know the topics covered in BC for 126. You should look at the sylabus for 125 to make sure you are familiar with the concepts they will cover. If you know the material, then by all means go for 126. Out of curiosity, which professor and section were you looking to switch into?

just the AB test. in the engineering classes handbook USC sent out a while ago, it said math 126 was basic differentiation and integration, while 126 did applications of integration, some of which we already went fairly in depth with, so it doesn’t seem like too much more. i haven’t looked at the 126 classes in a while since they told me i couldn’t register for them until i got my AP score. do you or anyone have any recommendations for 126 professors?</p>
