UCLA math sequence question

[RCLA325]

<p>So i have completed statistics for my transfer eligible math class, but I also plan on reaching calculus. At my CC I need to take Geometry, Trig and precalc before taking Calc, when looking on the UCLA courses for mathematics I don't see anything below Precalc. As a transfer student is there any prerequisites for precalc at UCLA? It says there is a math placement exam but I don't know if that pertains to transfers. </p>

<p>Im basically try to find out if I need to take geometry and trig at my CC, or if I can start Precalc right away as a transfer student. Sorry if this is a strange question but I searched all over and couldn't find an answer. </p>

<p>Thanks for any help.</p>

@UCLA

1. Precalculus. (4) Lecture, three hours; discussion, one hour.</p>

<p>Preparation: three years of high school mathematics. Requisite: successful completion of Mathematics Diagnostic Test at UCLA. Function concept. Linear and polynomial functions and their graphs, applications to optimization. Inverse, exponential, and logarithmic functions. Trigonometric functions.</p>

<p>[…]</p>

<p>In order to enroll in Math 1, students should have a good background in intermediate algebra. Before enrolling in Math 1, students must take and pass the Mathematics Diagnostic Test at the specified minimum performance level. Students who are unsure of their algebra skills might prepare for Math 1 by taking an intermediate algebra course at their local community college, or by taking the course Intermediate Algebra X400A at University Extension.

<p>“Three years of high school mathematics” ordinarily means algebra 1 / elementary algebra, geometry, and algebra 2 / intermediate algebra. The course above includes precalculus and trigonometry.</p>
