  • Note 1: For students who have completed Math& 152 or 163, the recommended order for taking 200-level courses is Math 230 (F), Math 220 (W), and Math 264 (Sp). Further, after Math& 152, students may take more than one math class in a quarter.
  • Note 2: Following Math& 152, you may choose between Math 163, Math 220, and Math 230. However, Math& 163 is a prerequisite to Math& 264.
  • MathP = Math Plus Support for students who place below the 100 level; we recommend taking a 10-credit MathP class. These classes offer more support and a greater likelihood of you achieving your goals.

 

Exploratory PathwayThe Exploratory Pathway

For students who are NOT interested in STEM, we recommend exploration through Math& 146: Statistics. For students who MAY be interested in STEM, we encourage beginning down the STEM calculus pathway of Math 141 → 142 → 151. Please speak to your advisor to confirm the best choices for your interests and background.
