Math Placement, Transfer Credit/Credit by Exam, PPL (Math Placement Test) → Registration → My major requires MATH 125, but what if I only place into MATH 122A/B. Is that a problem?
No. Although some degree program material solely lists MATH 125 as the requirement, in reality MATH 122B and MATH 125 satisfy the same requirement . Taking MATH 122A/B instead of MATH 125 is not a problem.
The standard Calculus I course is MATH 122A+122B. MATH 125 is simply the accelerated version for students who score extremely well on the PPL Math Placement test and have recently completed a high school calculus course. Some knowledge of Calculus I is assumed for students enrolled in Math 125.
Students from both courses can continue into MATH 129 (Calculus II), if their program requires another semester of calculus. A grade of C or higher is required in Math 122B or 125 in order to complete Math 129, Calculus II.
