What prerequisite mathematical background is required for the Quantitative Reasoning Approach (QRA) course?
Students need to be able to do demonstrate competence in basic algebra and have a solid understanding of arithmetic mathematics, including such tasks as percentages and ratios, in order to succeed in QRA. Therefore, to qualify for the course, one must have passed at least one year of high school algebra, or, alternatively, and must pass or test out of MAT 012 the Department Of Mathematics and Computer Science assessment. Arithmetic skill will be measured by the Math department’s screening test. Students who do not demonstrate sufficient proficiency at arithmetic in mathematics will need to enroll in a course called Pre-College Math 040 that is designed to prepare them for QRA.
I feel your pain. It took me years to find a linear course outside of business hours. Finally found one course https://www.distancecalculus.com/linearalgebra/ which I was able to take online. They have a wonderful way of explaining concepts that is easy to follow. This prepared me well for many of the OMSA discussions and it was time well spent. I made this work and it was the best solution for me.
