The AP Test info you give to them in the College Homework. The math placement test pretty much tested knowledge of functions and some pretty basic algebra. I was just surprised that it asked for horizontal and slant asymptotes, as I thought the only way to find horizontal asymptotes is limits at infinity and negative infinity, which is obviously a tenet of calculus.

I got a 93% on the math placement test (70% and above are treated the same) and you don’t know what you get on the chem test until registration.

Concerning the Physics placement test, I am in Chemical Engineering, which is technically in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, so it may not be required of me. I cannot find it under “Take Placement Tests”; all that is listed for me are Chem, Math, and Language.
