What mathematics course(s) should I take and should I take the math placment exam?
Mathematics Placement Policy: Success in any mathematics course depends on the student’s understanding of skills and information that was taught in previous mathematics courses. In order to ensure this success, we calculate the Math-Index score (100*HS-GPA Math-SAT) and use it to place the students as follows: • Math-Index < 850: The student may take MAT 095 or 104 • 850 Math-Index < 950 The student may take MAT 126, 131, 133, or CSC 204 • 950 Math-Index: The student may take MAT 141, 191, or CSC 204 If a student wishes to change this initial placement, the student can take a written placement test online which is used as follows: • 11 Score on test: The student may take MAT 126, 131, 133, or CSC 204 • 15 Score on test: The student may take MAT 141, 191, or CSC 204 Advanced Placement Exam A student will receive credit for MAT 192 with a score of 4 or 5 on either the AP Calculus AB or BC Placement Exam. With a score of 5 on the BC Placement Exam, a student may receive additional credit
