Should I take Finite Mathematics?

<p>Hi guys.</p>

<p>I am an incoming sophomore majoring in finance at a small public college in Missouri. I am almost certain that I will transfer to either Lehigh University, University of Richmond, Bentley University or University of Missouri in the fall of 2015.</p>

<p>I had considered taking finite mathematics and business statistics this fall, but I wondered if the former is necessary. </p>

<p>Originally, I was going to transfer to University of Missouri, so I started taking the math classes finance majors are required to take. They are: college algebra, business calculus, finite mathematics, business statistics I, and business statistics II. </p>

<p>I have already taken first two and did well in them. My current college requires either college algebra or finite mathematics. </p>

<p>I'm afraid that if I get accepted as a transfer student to Bentley, UR, or Lehigh, finite math won't transfer and I would have been better off taking art history or philosophy.</p>

<p>The colleges also don't seem to have an equivalent course. </p>

<p>What should I do?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>You should first check, if possible, which of those schools do accept finite math.</p>

<p>If the finite math you are talking about is discrete math or linear algebra, then it MAY transfer over, as both those classes are quite common.</p>
