What are the prerequisites for studying more advanced (100 level) mathematics courses?
Three semesters of calculus and a semester of linear algebra are the ordinary prerequisites for any 100-level mathematics course (except for Math 1260, which does not require linear algebra). • May I take a class that is more advanced than recommended? Yes, it is fine to begin in a more advanced course. There will be opportunities during the first couple of weeks of the semester to drop back, if you feel the course is too difficult. The most common situations are students who are unsure between the following pairs of courses: Math 0090 or Math 0100 Math 0100 or Math 0170or Math 0190 A second semester calculus course or A third semester calculus course. • May I take a class that is less advanced than recommended? Generally, the answer is yes, provided that you haven’t already received college credit at Brown for the course. In other words, if you receive credit for Math 0090 or for both Math 0090 and Math 0100 because of your score on the advanced placement math exam, then you cannot ta

Yes, it is fine to begin in a more advanced course. There will be ample opportunity during the first couple of weeks of the semester to drop back, if you feel the course is too difficult. The most common situations are students who are unsure between the following pairs of courses: Math 9 or Math 10 Math 10 or Math 17 Math 17 or Math 18. • May I take a class that is less advanced than recommended?
