Sorry to hear it was so unpleasant, LadyBlue.

It's not exactly true, however, that placing out of particular freshman college courses simply leads to taking a more difficult class. Placing out of certain courses can also allow students a greater degree of freedom in choosing classes than they otherwise would have.

Sometimes the first year cycle of university classes can be rather restrictive. Being able to place out of a class or two allows students the opportunity to be a bit more creative and flexible in putting together a program of study. That kind of freedom can really make a positive difference in a person's time at college.
