In оrder tо tаke this PreCаlculus I cоurse, I should hаve had Algebra II (or higher) in high school mathematics, and/or a placement exam score of MTE Units 1-______. NOTE: It is important to have a current and strong understanding of algebra. Students who do not have a strong algebra foundation are encouraged to re-enroll in either an in-person class or MTH161 with the 3-credit support course MDE61.
