Understanding Your Math Placement
Each student who takes the UW math placement test is assigned a placement group via our algorithm. When you view your placement test scores, you’ll see one of the groups below assigned to you. Each group qualifies you for a specific set of math courses, and also lets you know whether you satisfied or need to complete QR-A.
Below is a general overview of the math courses which you qualify for via the placement test. If you’re a new student attending SOAR, you’ll have a conversation with an academic advisor about which course best fits into your academic plan. We also have some more info for new students here.
