College Algebra????

[clynnm17]

How hard is it??? It has been a while since i have been in school but was always good at math. Really how hard is it?

[Brock Landers]

Not too bad...from what i remember, a lot of calculators these days do the work for you

[Bostongambler]

I was better at Gym class.

[Donkwin47]

Easy. Like 4 levels below the advanced statistics courses I breezed through for an easy A without attending lecture..

Then again, I'm a genius with an IQ and standardized testing scores in the 99th percentile so my feed back probably doesn't mean much.

Yup.

[Waterstpub87]

It isn't bad. From what I remember from like seven years ago, it was factor and foil, quadratic equations and some other basic stuff. You won't get into any calc or anything. The math I did in finance classes was harder.

[Bigbill365]

is it an above 100 course or below if its a 100 and up and you havent done any algebra in years youll have some problems if its below you should be alright

[chipper]

It's been lots of years but I don't remember it being too tough. Good luck.

High School math
Took Clep to exempt it

[TheMetsSuck]

if you've been out of the game for a while it will be a lot tougher than you think

[TheRifleman]

trust me...it's tough. just wait for stats if you have trouble with CA....lol...bottom-line is that .....you're screwed.

It will take some time for sure but its not hard. I had a 65 year old granny in my calc class and she aced with an A lol

[nyyanks773]

college algebra is usually just as easy if not easier than high school algebra

[LarrysKid]

Not hard at all. Just memorize the formulas and their uses and you are all set.

[Dkid]

i'd say a 3.5/10 on the math difficulty level.

What would you define as 10?

[spike420211]

What would you define as 10?

numerical methods [Fourier Transforms n chit...]

[TxAaron]

What would you define as 10?

The math class that gave me the most trouble was differential equations, so I would rate that a 10.

As far as college algebra, it's basically about being able to pretty basic stuff like quadratic equations, polynomials, whole number/integers, etc...You should be able to do fine just going to class without much prior knowledge...Get a good T.I. graphing calculator tho.

What would you define as 10?

there are many different type of math classes that can be rated 10's.
i'd say it goes algebra 3's calcs 6;s and the classes mentioned 9's or 10's.
