math launch?

hi!

im an incoming freshman for the fall aiming for biomed. i come with a really bad math base. since i dont expect to do great in the math placement exam i do assume ill be put in a lower math class. is it worth to do math launch to get to calc a lot sooner? and those that did do math launch how does it work and did it help you?

after that i am wondering is it worth it to take calc 1-2 at ucf? i have seen a lot of people recommend valencia and i did really enjoy doing in person at valencia for dual enrollment because of the smaller class size and being able to properly ask questions. Id love any advice from others that also struggled with math because rn its stressing me out :,)
