Incoming CAS prehealth student confused about calc placement exam

I’m an incoming CAS student on the prehealth track, and I’m a bit confused about the calc placement situation.

Because of the prehealth track, some of the courses I want to take require calculus readiness. NYU says I can demonstrate it through SAT Math/AP Calc/AP Precalc scores.

I got a 4 on AP Precalc, currently taking AP Calc BC, and got a 790 on SAT Math. However, I did not submit the AP Precalc score to NYU, and I applied test optional, so my SAT was not sent either.

I was wondering if I can still submit the SAT or AP score now. The portal says the score needs to appear in Albert by 5/15, but today is already 5/10, so I don’t think the scores can process in time.

Also, none of the scores I already submitted appear in Albert right now. I can’t even see the “test scores” tab on Albert.

Do I still need to register for the Calc I/MFE I placement exam, or can I select “I have qualifying test scores that serve as the prerequisite for Calculus I and Math for Economics I”? and submit the AP Pre-Calc score today?

I also don’t need higher level math placement. I just want to skip Calc I if possible, and I don’t plan on taking math beyond that.
