1 MATH ADVISEMENT GUIDE Recommendations for math courses are based on your placement results, degree program and career interests. Placement score: MAT 001 or MAT 00 You must complete required mathematics remediation before enrolling in any credit-bearing math course. NOTE: If your placement indicates MAT 001, you must complete MAT 001 and MAT 00 in one of the following ways: Enroll in MAT 001 during your first semester; after successfully completing MAT 001, you must enroll in and successfully complete MAT 00. Enroll in MAT 00. This intensive course gives you the opportunity to complete the MAT 001 and MAT 00 remedial requirements in a single semester. Placement score: MAT 100 You may enroll in any of the following courses without satisfying any additional math prerequisite if: You have placed into ENG 100 or 101 and RDG 00 or higher OR You have already completed any required English 001 and/or RDG 001 remediation. These courses can be taken in any order: MAT A Topical Approach to Mathematics (4 credits) MAT Concepts of Mathematics ( credits) MAT 10 - Introduction to Statistics ( credits) MAT Algebra and Trigonometry (4 credits) MAT Finite Mathematics: Quantitative Analysis For students in selected teacher education transfer programs: MAT Foundations of Mathematics for Educators ( credits) Placement score: MAT 111 on the College Level Math (CLM) Test OR You have already completed MAT 109 with a grade of C or higher You may take any of the courses listed above or MAT Pre-Calculus (4 credits) Placement score: MAT 11 on the College Level Math (CLM) Test OR You have already completed MAT 111 with a grade of C or higher You may take any of the courses listed above or MAT 11 - Calculus with Applications in Business and Social Sciences (4 credits) or MAT 1 - Calculus I (4 credits) NOTE: You may receive credit for MAT 11 or MAT 1, not both.

2 Students should carefully consider the descriptions below to decide which courses are most appropriate for them. Some descriptions include information that supplements the college catalog. MATH COURSES WITHOUT CREDIT-LEVEL MATH PREREQUISITES MAT A TOPICAL APPROACH TO MATHEMATICS (4 credits) Catalog Description: Fundamental mathematics topics and their applications. Topics include: problem solving, number systems, geometry, consumer mathematics, mathematical modeling, probability, management science, and social choice and decision making. This course includes a variety of different mathematical topics and their applications. Some of the topics are: problem solving: general plan of attack for solving any problem geometry: the mathematics of intricate fractal designs and/ or global positioning consumer mathematics: credit card debt, mortgages and savings plans optimization: making the best decisions based on mathematical calculations graph theory: planning delivery/ street cleaning routes and/ or DNA and RNA sequencing number systems: how ancient number systems evolved into our number system social choice: the mathematics and fairness of election systems apportionment and Fair Division: how to distribute resources fairly decision making: how to schedule multiple tasks most efficiently probability: calculating odds, as well as permutations and combinations MAT CONCEPTS OF MATHEMATICS ( credits) Catalog Description: Topics include: formal symbolic logic, arguments, methods of proof; basic concepts of sets, set operations and probability, consideration of number systems and computers. This is a logic course, so it may seem very different from other math courses. This course looks at the language of arguments and proofs, rather than focusing on numbers and calculations. Students will: study the meaning of and, or, not, and if then statements use written information to draw valid conclusions learn logical equivalences and how to apply them Other possible topics include: how logic relates to simple electronic circuits and devices strategies for simple games (like tic-tac-toe) basic decision theory truth tables set theory- classification and categorization of objects This course may be of particular interest to students interested in English, philosophy or law.

3 MAT 10 - INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS ( credits) Catalog Description: Appropriate and inappropriate uses of statistics, measures of central tendency, variability, some basic concepts of probability, the binomial distribution, the normal and t-distributions, testing hypotheses, estimation, chi-square, linear regression, and correlation. In newspapers, television, magazines and on the Internet, we see graphs and figures that are presented to us as facts. It is useful to know how this information is gathered and organized, and to determine whether these claims seem accurate or misleading. Introductory statistics is an important course for understanding such data and achieving success in many professional careers. In this course, students will study: appropriate and inappropriate uses of statistics the organization and presentation of data descriptive statistics linear correlation and regression probability applications discrete and continuous probability distributions sampling distributions estimation hypothesis testing the chi-square distribution This course may be of particular interest to students focusing on such majors as business, psychology, sociology, education, and nursing. MAT ALGEBRA AND TRIGONOMETRY (4 credits) Catalog Description: This course considers fundamental ideas from algebra, trigonometry, and geometry. A problem solving approach is used. This course is intended to prepare students for MAT 111 (precalculus) and MAT 1 (calculus). It further develops the algebra from MAT 00 (elementary algebra). Students should only register for MAT 109 under the following conditions: a. They need to take MAT 109 for their major b. They need to take MAT 111 for their major, but don t yet fulfill the prerequisite If you plan to take MAT 109, some of the skills you are epected to know before entering the class are listed below. If this material is unfamiliar to you, then you should consider taking MAT 00 before registering for MAT 109. Epress as a single fraction. Find the product of
