Math 243 Strong Start
This course is designed for non-stem students who have already taken MTH20 (basic arithmetic); but would like to bypass the next 3 prerequisites for MTH243: (MTH60, 65 & 95).
This course is not appropriate for stem students who will need college algebra and/or calculus.
The basic idea is to provide a path for non-stem focused students (i.e. humanities, social science, education, economics, nursing) to pass MTH243 without the usual time (and money) consuming prerequisites … with the added assistance of a 2-hour/week mandatory 1-credit corequisite course (MTH243R).
MTH243R is a required 1-credit corequisite course designed to teach key algebra concepts, reinforce MTH243 skills, & provide guidance in test-taking and study skills.
Typical course schedule (MTH243: 5-hours/week, MTH243R: 2-hours/week):
| MTH 243 | PROB. & STATISTICS | MTW Thurs. |
8:00 - 8:50 a.m. 8:00 - 9:50 a.m. |
| MTH 243R | PROB. & STATISTICS COREQ. | MW | 9:00 - 9:50 a.m. |
Admission to this course is by permission only from an advisor or a math instructor. We want to make sure that students who get into this course understand it and belong there.
