Math 125 (algebra for statistics) is a course that requires no prerequisite and is a bridge that bypasses a bulk of intermediate math courses and teaches the skills necessary for Math-164, which also qualifies for CSU transfer.
What are the different levels of math classes? Algebra 1. Algebra 2. Trigonometry. Geometry. Precalculus. Calculus.
Transitional math courses are designed for seniors who have met the high school math graduation requirements but who are not projected to be ready for college-level math be the end of their senior year.
Transition to College Mathematics and Statistics (TCMS), developed with funding from the National Science Foundation, is a problem-based fourth-year high school mathematics course designed to maximize student preparedness for college and careers.
The high school math curriculum is divided into five courses—Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. It is necessary to take three years of math in high schools. As pre-calculus and calculus are advanced mathematical concepts, students are not bound to take them.
Basic Math Skills is designed for college students who have a weak background in mathematics and who may exhibit math anxiety. The course concentrates on operations involving fractions, decimals, and percents. Measurement, geometry, statistics, and the principles of algebra are also introduced.
Transition Mathematics aims to increase applied arithmetic, pre-algebra, and pre-geometry skills in students in grades 7–12 . This 1-year curriculum also addresses general application to different wordings of problems, types of numbers, and contexts for problems and aims to promote mathematical reading skills.
By engaging students in real-world applications, Ready for High School Math develops critical thinking skills that students will use throughout their high school studies. The course consists of eight units, culminating in a capstone project that emphasizes synthesis of concepts.
As part of SREB's suite of Readiness courses, Math Ready was designed to help seniors master math skills before transitioning from high school to postsecondary education and the workplace and avoid costly remediation at the postsecondary level.

Counselors use the Multiple Measures Testing placement chart to direct students on which (math) class to take, so if the course is required for the student’s major/GE Pattern, AND if the student enrolls into the appropriate math level based on multiple measures, then the VA will accept these courses and certify them for benefits.
These degree applicable courses are treated the same as any other degree applicable courses for financial aid purposes. For additional information please see the Financial Aid office’s Financial Aid office’s Financial Aid Guide and Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) Policy .
Career options for mathematics majors include actuary, accountant, mathematician, statistician, teacher, and work in various computer-related fields.
The academic maps will give you an idea of the classes you need to take. However, please meet with a counselor to personalize your education plan.

Students have three general education patterns from which to choose but are strongly encouraged to consult with a MiraCosta counselor for assistance in selecting the general education pattern that is most appropriate for their educational goal.
Students who graduate with a degree from MiraCosta possess sufficient depth in some field of knowledge to contribute to lifetime interest and career pursuit.
The MiraCosta College Core Competencies identify the learning outcomes students can expect to gain from their general education coursework.
A score of 3, 4, or 5 on a College Board Advanced Placement Math Examination. A minimum score of 50 on a College-Level Examination Program Subject Exam (College Algebra, Pre-calculus, or Calculus). A score of 4 or better on an International Baccalaureate Mathematics Examination.
Major & Grades. Students must complete a minimum of 18 units in a chosen major or area of emphasis and complete each course with a "C" or better (or a "P" if the course is taken on a "pass/no pass" basis). Courses completed with a C- from U.S. regionally accredited colleges may be used to complete this requirement.
The associate degree is designed to prepare students either for transfer to a four-year college or university or for immediate employment. Although the associate degree recognizes the completion of lower-division course requirements, it does not guarantee admission to a four-year college or university.
Students who are in progress to complete or who have previously been awarded a MiraCosta associate degree may be qualified for an additional associate degree under the following circumstances: The additional degree represents a new major. Each degree has at least 12 mutually exclusive units.
An "ed plan" is a term-by-term guide that consists of the general education courses, major preparation courses, and any transferable elective courses that are required by the student's desired CSU transfer destination. The college’s academic counselors will also ensure students are aware of CSU application deadlines as well as the entrance and graduation requirements that are specific to their desired transfer institution.
California community college students who earn an Associate Degree for Transfer (AS-T or AA-T) are granted priority admission to the CSU into a similar baccalaureate degree program with a guarantee of junior standing as long as the student meets all prescribed admission requirements. Degrees that are deemed similar at specific CSU campuses can be found on the CSU Associate Degree for Transfer Major & Campus Search website at www2.calstate.edu/apply/transfer/Pages/associate-degree-for-transfer-major-and-campus-search. Once admitted, students are required to complete no more than 60 additional prescribed units to qualify for the similar baccalaureate degree.
Students who complete the entire CSU GE-Breadth certification pattern of courses are eligible to receive a Certificate of Achievement in CSU General Education. These courses, which satisfy lower-division GE requirements to any CSU campus, are listed on Plan B. ( Note: This program may not be appropriate for some high unit majors in science, technical, engineering or math disciplines, so students should consult with a MiraCosta College counselor to develop an appropriate educational plan for their intended major and CSU campus.)
To obtain a bachelor's degree from a CSU campus, students must complete a minimum of 120 semester units (180 quarter units). A maximum of 70 units of transferable credit will be accepted for courses completed at MiraCosta or any California community college. The transfer status of MiraCosta College courses is noted in their catalog course ...
A minimum of 48 semester units of GE is required: 39 units of lower-division and 9 units of upper-division courses. All of the lower-division GE courses may be completed at MiraCosta before students transfer to a CSU campus.
Note: Most CSU campuses will not accept lower-division transfer students.
