Satisfying the General Mathematics Requirement
If you have taken the math placement exam, the math department has your score. If you pass the exam, you get 3 hours credit for MS 101, and you have satisfied the general math requirement. If you do not pass the exam, you may take and pass any 100-level math course. You must take the placement exam before registering for calculus or precalculus. It will help you decide where to start. It takes an hour or less and can be graded by the next day. The placement exam is given during FOCUS or during the first week of classes in the math office. See Nancy Wilton for an appointment (ext. 7545).
