What are some of the pitfalls of placement?
• One of the pitfalls of placement is that even though you place into a higher math class, there is no guarantee that you have the mathematic background to successfully complete the course. We find that many students fail Math 120 and Math 121 the first time around because their skills are not where they should be for success. • We highly recommend beginning the Math sequence where you are placed and building a solid foundation for success in future classes.
