26 courses with the subject MATH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
MATH 0093Pre-Algebra3
3 hours lecture/week - Common Course Outline This course is for the student whose placement test score indicates the need for a review of fractions, decimals, ratios, proportions, percent, signed numbers, polynomials/like terms, and solving basic linear equations in one variable before beginning elementary algebra.
