For Intermediate Algebra (0005), a Math Placement score of 12 is needed. If you have a 22 or higher on the ACT math sub-score, or have earned at least a "C" in Intermediate Algebra at a 2-year or 4-year college, you would not need to take the UMSL Math Placement test to take an introductory math course, such as, Contemporary Math (1020) or College Algebra (1030). Score requirements for these courses and others may be found on the following web page: http://www.cs.umsl.edu/Schedule/math-prereqs.html

There will be 3 Math Placement Exam Prep courses available in May, 2010. This a non-credit course and the fee is $90. Additional details and registration procedures may be found for each Section in the links below.

This course is a refresher of the prerequisite material for students who need to take college algebra but need to review in order to place in the course and also to be more prepared for the course.  The students take a test on the last day of class.  This test is equivalent to the placement exam and the students will be placed in the appropriate course based on their score.
