<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br>
<br>
Pima is no longer offering a course that transfers to UA as Math 120R,<br>
Calculus Preparation (PIMA MAT 187). They decided to split this into two courses,<br>
MAT 188 and 189. Students must take MAT 188 first, as it is the prerequisite<br>
to MAT 189. These two courses are often offered in the same semester,<br>
MAT 188 as a first 7 week course, MAT 189 as a second 7 week course. <br>
<br>
Pima MAT 188/189 is intended for students who plan on taking <br>
Calculus (MAT 122a/b, or Pima MAT 220). MAT 188 transfers to UA <br>
as Math 112. MAT 189 transfers as UA Math 111. The "old" <br>
trig course (Pima MAT 182) may no longer be offered. <br>
<br>
Pima still offers MAT 151, which also transfers as Math 112. <br>
MAT 151 at Pima is intended for students who <b>do not</b> plan on <br>
taking Calculus. On paper, MAT 188 and 151 are similar, so both<br>
with satisfy UA Math 112. <br>
<br>
For Pima students, this might help them figure out what to take:<br>
<br>
<i>Want college algebra but do not need calculus for science and engineering? Take MAT 151.<br>
<br>
Want precalculus (or college algebra and trig) and also need calculus? Take MAT 188 and 189.<br>
This would also include Architecture students who need college algebra and trig. </i>
<br>
<br>
For now, either recently completed Pima course (MAT 151 or 188) would get a <br>
student into the "next" course at UA:<br>
MATH 111, 113, 116 (after MIS 111), 120R, 163, 263, SBS 200, CHEM 151, etc. <br>
<br>
Let me know if you have any questions about this.<br>
