Mathematics Skills Placement Guide

*NOTE -  The Math placement test is an adaptive test, meaning the more questions you answer correctly, the higher level of math questions you will be asked. Most students will not take all sections of the Math placement. You must meet minimum scores in the Pre-Algebra section of the test to move to the higher levels of the math placement test.
