When can I start?
Math for Seniors at AVHS • It is highly recommended that you take math every year in high school. Some of the reasons are: • to further your problem solving skills which will, in turn, bring you more success in the workplace. • to meet the entrance expectations of most four year colleges. • to score well on junior college and four year college entrance exams. Placement exams determine what math class a student will take in college. A poor score on the college placement exam will result in you having to take (and pay for) more remedial math classes in college. Often, these classes are taken for no college credit. • to meet the prerequisites of science classes you may want to take here at Amador or in college.
