[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading this thread has me very sad. I took multi-variable calculus as a freshman in college. I'm an engineer, I turned out fine. I don't think I could have handled calc 3 in highschool, and it would have been really bad if I had not fully gotten it since its a foundation class for everything in the sciences. Maybe they *should* be taking it in college. Can't you opt to take summer classes to catch up if you want in college? It seems strange that a placement in sixth grade should have any sort of lasting effect on your life. [/quote] I took multivariable in HS and repeated it first semester freshman year. I think this is a typical path. From what I've seen looking at the math department at my oldest kid's college, it's tough to place out of multivariable in college. Just taking the class in HS isn't enough...you would likely need to take a placement exam at the school.[/quote]
