<p>I'm creating my schedule for my junior year of high school today, and I really need an answer to this question fast, if at all possible. Thanks. - For the A-G requirements for UCR, there's three years of required math. My question is does it matter what the three years are? Does it have to consist of Algebra, Geometry and Algebra II? Or can it consist of, say, Geometry, Algebra II, Math Analysis? In short, can you not take Algebra I, but still complete the A-G math requirements by taking three other math courses?</p>
<p>And lastly, will UCR flat out deny you if you don't have one required class from the a-g requirements, if you're an out of state student?</p>
<p>I think UCR at least wants you to have tried to reach pre-calculus level. There is a pre-calculus class here that you can place into after taking the Math Placement Exam, but it really depends on what you are planning to have as a major. For me, I'm a Film and Visual Culture major so I don't need to take math at all, even for breadth requirements (I can choose to substitute it with computer science or statistics).</p>
<p>I applied to UCR with Algebra I (freshman), Geometry (sophomore), Accelerated Pre-calculus (which combines Algebra II and Pre-Calculus; junior). I definitely didn't do so well during the Accelerated Pre-Calc class, so I decided to take non-honors Calculus senior year. That was my situation, anyway, so I'm not sure about including other levels of math - they never had a math analysis class at my school. But the general sequence (I think) they want is Algebra I (if you didn't take it in middle school), Geometry, Algebra II, Pre-Calculus and Calculus (if your major isn't science/math/business/economics/etc. related).</p>
<p>I'm not sure about the admissions policy of out-of-state students, but I do know that the A-G courses are strictly required even for in-state students so you should try to meet them. Also, you have to meet the minimum OOS GPA requirement or they will deny admission (which is getting stricter). </p>
