<p>I’ll be attending CAS this fall, and I’m wondering whether it is worth it to study and place out of certain classes…</p>
<p>1) I completed BC calc the first quarter of this school year, but I was reluctant to take the AP exam because I haven’t studied Calc in half a year, while my friends in lower math levels took the BC because they are still currently taking the class. Should I study over the summer to place out of the intro course? Is it really that bad? The thing is, I was in an advanced math course here at my school (I go to a prestigious boarding school in New England), and I think it would be cheating to start at intro.</p>
<p>2) Is it true that the Chem AP doesn’t mean much? I’m going to be taking the test tomorrow, and i’d like to know for the sake of my sanity.</p>
<p>Or should I just take the intro classes? My parents are planning on making my summer hell with placement exam studying, and I want to know if it’s worth it, if not for next year, but for the next four (ie: grad requirements)</p>
