MAT 075 - Statistics Support

Prerequisites:
Primary placement method used for any student whose high school transcript can be interpreted for use with the calculation spreadsheet: High School GPA + High School Math composite calculation >= 3.5

The College Ready test may be used for both placement and remediation on an experimental basis.

Students who have completed pre-requisite developmental math courses with:

a C- in MAT074 College Prep Math 1

or, for students where we can not use the composite high school calculation:

1.5 years of high school algebra and meet the minimum placement

or a Compass Algebra score of at least 50

or an ACT Math score of at least 15

or an ACCUPLACER Arithmetic score of at least 250
Corequisites:
MAT 156: For students who qualify for this course, but do not qualify for MAT156 Statistics, they should take this course MAT075 Statistics Support at the same time as MAT156 Statistics.

DEVELOPMENTAL CREDIT TYPE
