What math courses are right for me?
Depending on your program of study, and your level of skill in mathematics, you will take different math courses.
View the chart which may help you sort out the sequence of courses to take as well as the prerequisites required. Where you start in the sequence will depend upon the prerequisites you meet and/or how you score on the CLC Math Placement Test. Please see a math advisor early in your program to discuss which math courses you should take.
