MAT 012 / 013A / 013B Students who have Intermediate Algebra as a Developmental Math requirement need to take only MAT 012 or MAT 013A or MAT 013B depending on their required program of study. Students are NOT required to take ALL of these courses. The numbering convention can be confusing for students. We have had students who enroll in MAT 013A or MAT 013B who have already passed MAT 012. These students should NOT be enrolled in MAT 013A or MAT 013B but should register for their credit math ASAP.
MAT 005 - Arithmetic Course Description (1 credit): Develop proficiency in arithmetic topics such as whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percents, ratio and proportion, measurement and reading graphs. 3T with EdReady as an 8-week Key Info Only offered in Math FIRS course; Calculators are NOT permitted MAT 005 Students: Group A (the majority) Students who are applying to the AACC Nursing Program who either (1) Did not successfully pass the Arithmetic Placement Test for the Nursing Program or (2) Opted not to take the Arithmetic Placement Test. NOTE: Many of these students have either already met their developmental math requirement or may not have a developmental math requirement. Group B Students who wish to start their mathematics journey in our most basic mathematics course.
MAT 010 Pre-Algebra Course Description (2 credits): Learn pre-algebra topics such as arithmetic of fractions, decimals, signed numbers, literal expressions, linear equations, polynomials and word problems. Attention will be given to study skills. 3T with EdReady format; Calculators ARE Key Info Only offered in Math FIRS permitted; Students need a C in 010 to enroll in MAT 011. MAT 010 Students: Students who have taken the Accuplacer Math Placement test upon starting at AACC and placed into MAT 010. These students will need to take either: MAT 010 MAT 011 MAT 012 Credit Math (preferably MAT 141/151) OR MAT 010 MAT 011 MAT 013A/MAT 141 (must have an A in MAT 011 to enroll) OR MAT 010 MAT 011 MAT 013B Non-STEM Credit Math
MAT 011 Beginning Algebra Course Description (4 credits): Study beginning algebra topics such as operations on real numbers; simplifying expressions; solving first-degree equations, inequalities and application problems; graphing linear equations and solving systems of linear equations by graphing; simplifying exponents; operations on polynomials; factoring polynomials; and solving quadratic equations with applications by factoring. Pre-Requisites for MAT 011 Successful completion of MAT 010 with a C or higher OR an appropriate score on the Mathematics Placement Test 3T formats; Calculators ARE Key Info Offered in Lecture and Math FIRS permitted; Students need a C in 011 to enroll in MAT 012 or MAT 013B OR students need an A to enroll in MAT 013A (paired with MAT 141). These students will need to take either: MAT 011 MAT 012 Credit Math (preferably MAT 141/151) OR MAT 011 MAT 013A/MAT 141 (must have an A in MAT 011 to enroll) OR MAT 011 MAT 013B Non-STEM Credit Math (MAT 100/133/135/221/222)
MAT 012 Intermediate Algebra Course Description (4 credits): Study intermediate algebra topics. Topics include linear, rational, radical, quadratic, exponential and logarithmic equations and functions; systems of linear equations; graphing linear and non-linear functions; inequalities; and problem solving. A brief review of Beginning Algebra topics is also included. Pre-Requisites for MAT 012 Successful completion of MAT 011 with a C or higher OR an appropriate score on the Mathematics Placement Test 3T formats; Key Info Offered in Lecture, Hybrid, Online, and Math FIRS Calculators ARE permitted; This course is designed specifically for students whose program of study requires MAT 141/151 or higher; Students need a C in 012 to enroll in anycredit math course. These students will need to take: MAT 012 Credit Math (preferably MAT 141/151) **While MAT 012 prepares students for MAT 141/151 and beyond, a student who passes MAT 012 can enroll in any credit level math course.
MAT 013A Accelerated Intermediate Algebra Course Description (2 credits): An accelerated study of intermediate algebra topics specifically focused on the essential skills and applications in MAT 141 College Algebra & Trigonometry 1. Topics include linear, rational, radical, quadratic, exponential and logarithmic equations and functions; systems of linear equations; graphing linear and non-linear functions; and inequalities. A brief review of Beginning Algebra topics is also included. Pre-Requisites for MAT 013A Achieve an appropriate score on the Mathematics Placement Test AND completion of high school Algebra 2 with a grade of at least B, OR completion of MAT 011 with a grade of A. Key Info Offered in a 5-week Lecture format (Flipped Classroom Model); Calculators ARE permitted; This course is paired with a 10-week Lecture MAT 141 students enroll in BOTH Mat 013A and MAT 141 to meet their developmental and credit math requirement in one semester. These students will take: MAT 013A MAT 141 NOTE: MAT 013A is NOT a pre-requisite for MAT 100/133/135/221/222. As a result, if a student passes MAT 013A, they will not be eligible for MAT 100/133/135/221/222 without permission from the department chair.
MAT 013B Accelerated Intermediate Algebra (Non-STEM) Course Description (2 credits): An accelerated study of intermediate algebra topics supporting the problem solving skills of liberal arts mathematics courses including MAT 100 The Nature of Mathematics, MAT 133 Finite Mathematics, MAT 135 Elementary Statistics, and MAT 221 and 222 Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics I and II. Topics include linear, rational, radical, quadratic, exponential and logarithmic equations and functions; systems of linear equations; graphing linear and non-linear functions; and inequalities. A brief review of Beginning Algebra topics is also included. Pre-Requisites for MAT 013B Achieve an appropriate score on the Mathematics Placement Test OR completion of MAT 011 with a grade of C or higher. 3T format*; Calculators ARE permitted. Students need a C or Key Info Offered in Math FIRS higher to enroll in MAT 100/133/135/221/222. *The only lecture section(s) of MAT 013B is paired with MAT 135. All other sections are Math FIRS 3T. MAT 013B MAT 100/133/135/221/222 These students will take: NOTE: MAT 013B is NOT a pre-requisite for MAT 141. As a result, if a student passes MAT 013B, they will NOT be eligible for MAT 141. That student would need to take either MAT 012 or MAT 013A (if eligible) before enrolling in MAT 141.
