So first of all, I took AP Calculus last year and did well in the class, but not so hot on the AP exam (I only got a 2 on the AB exam). I also didn't do amazing on my math placement exam for IU (I don't remember what it was exactly, but it was in the C-range I believe). I'm going into the College of Arts and Sciences and have registered for classes, but for my mathematics modeling course I was put in MATH M-118: Finite Mathematics. I've learned that it's a very difficult course and I would be learning completely new material, so I was trying to do some research if there was any way I could take a calculus course to fulfill this mathematics modeling requirement (I actually enjoyed calculus). I've seen MATH M-119: Brief Survey of Calculus I might be an option, but would I also have to take MATH M-120: Brief Survey of Calculus II? I know MATH M-211: Calculus I is also an option, but is much more advanced. So which course should I take? Should I stick with finite or take a calculus course? If so, which one? I plan on going into international studies and possibly pre-law if that helps. Thanks!
