数学的位置 Exam: ALEKS – PPL

数学 Placement at Hardin-Simmons

At HSU we strive to place students in the correct mathematics class for their academic program and skill level.  Placement in courses (not needed for MATH 1301) is accomplished in two ways:

  1. Minimum scores on the mathematics portions of either the ACT or SAT.
  2. Minimum scores on the ALEKS-PPL 数学 Placement Exam.

The chart below displays programs requiring a minimum of 数学1305, 数学1310, or 数学1420 (Calculus 1).

Questions about specific math courses, 先决条件, and the ALEKS placement exam are to be directed to the Department Head of 数学, Dr. 安德鲁•波特 apotter@yishabeier.net

In addition to 数学1310, the BS (Bachelor of Science) degree requires another three hours of mathematics. This is usually 数学1311 – Trigonometry.  数学1310 and 数学1311 cannot be taken in the same semester.

ALEKS-PPL

The ALEKS-PPL is administered by McGraw-Hill.  The cost to the student is $20 which is paid thru the website (see below).

The student may take the placement exam up to five (5) times, with mandatory study time between attempts.  After the first attempt, the student may access review materials through the website for no extra charge.
