Math 96=Prerequisite to All Gateway Math?2/3 of Math 96 content is not needed for

success in Math 120Providing alternative route to Math 120

improves success for Liberal Arts students

allows a more focused and effective route for remedial students into College Algebra

students who complete Math 96 now have 70% success rate in Math 126

Both Groups of Students Benefit

Overall Success2012-2013

Large scale pilot of 120E and 126E, without Math 95 prerequisite for Math 96 and 120E

80% of remedially-placed freshmen earned college credit in first year

2013-2014 Systematic placement yielded higher

enrollmentsPass rates >90% in 120E, 80% in 126EFine-tuning placement in Math 95 vs Math 96 OR 120E
