Placement into Math courses.

In order to register for Precalculus or Calculus courses, Math 50, 50C, 61, or 71, students must take the ALEKS PPL Math Placement Test.   Placement into each of these courses requires a minimum score on the ALEKS Math Placement test.  Students who do not meet the minimum score for Precalculus will have to take Math 06A, College Algebra and Real Numbers.  Passing this course will enable the student to take Precalculus.
