    Basically nothing. You get put in college algebra after taking a placement test for college, and they decide if you know enough to place out of pre-calc and go onto calculus, or they stick you in algebra.

    Your placement test doesn't qualify you to get into a higher lever of Math so you will need to take the pre-algebra before you can sign up for a Math that is tranferable to a university. See a councelor.
