ASU adds a new class: MAT 142 College Mathematics

[ss20ts]

Like I said, MANY schools will take something lower than College Algebra and/or Stats, depending on the degree.  I stand by it.  I can list dozens, but I won't.

And like I said MANY won't take it. Neither one of us is wrong. Goodbye!

I want to make sure that other people know that many colleges will take this course.  There's no sense telling people that it probably won't be accepted, instead of encouraging them to find out for themselves.  I never want to discourage someone from a course that may benefit them, and I don't want them to come on this forum and think that something is true automatically because someone said so.

So my advice to anyone who thinks this course might benefit them - see if your school will accept it before making a decision.  It may be the perfect course for you.

I took this class (it was a requirement) as part of my degree at ASU. The proctoring is actually not live proctoring... you show your room via your webcam, then it watches and records you as well as your computer desktop. The software you have to install on your browser is very invasive, but thankfully you can just remove it when the class is over. If you do something like stand up, it will flag you as potentially cheating, and then the professor can review the recording. That never happened to me. Not a hard class at all... I am terrible at math and I got an A+. You also have to do "peer review" problems by hand, which was kind of a waste of time since half the class has no clue what they're doing, and the feedback is often wrong.
