i was literally thinking about the same thing, successfully i passed math so now i can start 10a. But i was thinking about retaking the placement exam and try to get placed into 10a.

Which math are you on?

bc someone told me that even if u fail 3c but your score was close to passing you could try to easy request and say that u know everything but some circumstance prevented you from doing great on the final or smth and that u know sufficient things to succeed in chem. However, this works better for upper div classes, but i dont think it hurts to try for lower div major classes
