− | When a student is admitted to TAMS, they will start with Pre-Cal (MATH 1650). However, a student can place into higher level math based on their performance on the pre-calculus placement test taken during summer orientation. Students who miss the placement test will be automatically placed in pre-calculus. | + | When a student is admitted to TAMS, they will start with Pre-Cal (MATH 1650).

Students who miss the placement test will be automatically placed in pre-calculus. Placement tests are very important! The precalculus placement test is required to gain access to any higher courses. The Calculus II (MATH 1720) placement test covers derivatives, integrals, and limits and the Calculus III (MATH 2730) placement test covers polar and parametric derivatives and integrals, as well as trigonometric integrals, improper integrals, and the like.
