Incoming
Freshman Schedule Planning
|
Department of Civil Engineering |
Incoming freshmen are required to take the Math Placement
Exam (MPE) to identify where they belong in math. Your math placement is critical to the rest
of your schedule, as many classes in the engineering curriculum have math prerequisites
or co-requisites. Your math placement exam score will consist of four numbers
that are for basic algebra, intermediate algebra, college algebra, and
trigonometry, respectively. Find your
math placement from your four scores in the table below:
|
Level |
MPE Score |
Math course to take |
|
1 |
No MPE,
or all four scores <5 |
CCDM 114 |
|
2 |
1st score
≥ 5 |
MATH 120 |
|
3 |
Sum of
1st and 2nd scores ≥ 10 |
MATH 121 |
|
4 |
1st
≥ 8 and 2nd ≥ 6 |
MATH 190 |
|
5 |
All
scores ≥ 6 |
MATH 191 |
Based on your math placement, we suggest the following first
semester schedule options. Be sure to
discuss your choices with an advisor. If
you have questions, you can contact Dr. White
(505-646-3802; krwhite@nmsu.edu) or Dr. King (505-646-5377; jpking@nmsu.edu).
