Math for El. Ed. 1, MAT201M, Pre-test Policy

(2/8/2008)

Before registering for MAT201M (Mathematics for Elementary Education 1), a student must demonstrate sufficient skills in basic mathematics. These skills are generally at the middle-school level and are essential for successful completion of the course. There are two ways students can satisfy this requirement:

A score of at least 23 on the Math portion of the ACT or 519 on the Math portion of the SAT.
Passing Bethel's MAT201M Pre-Test with a minimum score of 80%.

In other words, a student not meeting the ACT/SAT requirement must pass the MAT201M Pre-Test before registering for the course.

Other Polices and Notes:

The pre-test will be administered at the times given in the schedule below. Students can take the exam only one time during each testing period.
Students need only pass the exam once.
First semester freshmen will not be admitted to the course unless they have a sufficient ACT/SAT score and are intending a grades 5 - 8 specialty in mathematics.
