Student Marine Biology Math Level Requirement out of High School?

Applying to College
1

<p>I am thinking about getting a B.S. in Marine Biology, but I wanted to know what the math level requirement was before entering into the program as a freshman? What do most universities require? </p>

<p>I am currently in Geometry, and a sophomore; so I will take Trigonometry my senior year. My math level was decided when I was in 6th grade, so there was nothing in the past I could have done about it. </p>

<p>Is my math level sufficient, or should I take Calculus over the summer after my senior year at a community college before entering into university?</p>

<p>Thank you. </p>

<p>That depends more on the college you’re applying to than the major. Taking calculus at a community college could help in terms of knowledge, but not in terms of admissions. </p>

<p>Completion of trigonometry and precalculus in high school so that you are ready to take calculus (and statistics) in college is sufficient at all but a few super-elite STEM-focused schools.</p>
