 Since you have credit for MATH 226, you should not sign up for the regular MATH 226/227 pair of courses. Since you are signing up for courses before you take the place-out examination,​ and it is easier to drop courses rather than add, you may want to sign up for a section of MATH 227 in the first half of the semester. You can also sign up to take a stand-alone MATH 227 in the second half of the semester, although this is less ideal; for this you should use the second form on the Forms page: Since you have credit for MATH 226, you should not sign up for the regular MATH 226/227 pair of courses.

-While MATH 227 is considered a prerequisite for Calculus 3 (MATH 323), not all of it is needed there, and we consider 5 on AP Calculus BC sufficient prerequisite to take MATH 323. You can take MATH 323 and MATH 227 in the same semester. You can use the 4th form on the Forms page to get into MATH 323 without MATH 227 credit. ​ 
  
 You may also want to register for Linear Algebra (MATH 304), Honors Calculus (MATH 230), and/or Number Systems (MATH 330). In truly exceptional circumstances,​ for students with serious exposure to higher mathematics,​ other options may be available. For any questions, email Prof. Alexander Borisov at borisov@math.binghamton.edu ​ You may also want to register for Linear Algebra (MATH 304), Honors Calculus (MATH 230), and/or Number Systems (MATH 330).
