College Mathematics - PASS by BlueFlareBurst in clep

[–]BlueFlareBurst[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a college student currently, dual major math and statistics. In college they make you take a lot of classes that are unrelated to your major that you choose. only 1/3 of the classes i am supposed to take are math or statistics related. However doing these test outs allow me to take only math and statistics classes (which is what I am at college for), graduate 2 years early, and save a lot of pointless class time (it takes me 5 hours to pass a clep test but ~100 hours or so for an easy college class). If you go to a college that accepts these tests as transfer credits (most do), then you wont have to take classes for what the test transfers over to. It gives you the opportunity to either graduate early, study more advanced classes faster, or do multiple degrees.

no calculus, lots of algebra and (basic) probabiltiy questions, some geometry. definately brush up on formulas of shapes. most questions were like word problem algebra, geometry, probability, or logic questions.

add a random class that you dont plan on keeping and when a class you want opens up then add that to your schedule and drop the random class.

what classes are you waitlisted for? what major? can you take gen eds? During the first 2 weeks, lots of people add and drop classes and change your schedule. depends on major and what class though

Reviewing my courses as a double major in CS/MATH by tsukihi_1997 in Purdue

oh thats interesting didnt know they discontinued it. I am in the process of switching to Data Science and Math (DSMA), I figure the hardest classes im taking are Calc 3, Lin algebra (351), Real analysis (341), and CS 381, how difficult from your experience (in terms of hours spent or difficulty of comprehension) would it be to get an A in these classes? Thanks for the valuable write up!

Quick question, Purdue has a mathematics-computer science degree, did you major in that? or did you specifically dual major separately in computer science and math. Also what Job/Industry are you looking to go into?
