I’m an incoming freshman intending to major in Computer Science, and I’m currently planning to take Math 218 (D1) during my first trimester.

I took AP Calculus BC during my junior year of high school and got a 4 on the AP exam. Is it unusual to take Math 218 as a freshman with that background, or is it a fairly normal placement?

For anyone who has taken Math 218, especially as a first-year, how challenging did you find it? Is the AP Calc BC material enough preparation, or is there a significant jump in difficulty?

I’m trying to get a sense of the workload before committing to the course. Any advice on what I should review beforehand would also be appreciated.

I’m incoming freshman planning to study compsci. I still haven’t decided which classes to take for my fall trimester, whether to take cs 101 or cs 201 straight. I do have exposures to coding ,specifically python language and little bit of java script, but the concepts are rusty since I havent coded for a while, and all of the concepts are basics like for loops, functions, and objects. Would I struggle in cs 201?
