If you have taken and completed the Calculus Readiness Diagnostic Test, your test score would have been sent to you via email and you will have been given the following recommendations.
Score: 21 - 30
Score: 21 - 30
It seems that you have the prerequisite skills to take Calculus. In case you want to take time to review anyway, you can refer to the online materials that are linked on this website.
Score: 15 - 20
Score: 15 - 20
It seems that you are equipped with some of the basic calculus prerequisites but might be rusty in some areas. For a quick review, you can refer to the online materials linked on this website. You can also opt to take a short refresher on the needed prerequisite skills. (One possibility is to enroll in MATH PREP.)

It might be that you’re just having a bad day. But if you think that the test result is an accurate picture of your precalculus skills, we highly recommend that you take a full-semester precalculus course. If your degree program requires you to take MATH 21, then that should be sufficient. But if your degree program does not require it, we suggest that you take the MATH 2 precalculus course on audit.
On this page, we give you information and links containing the materials or courses that we suggested.
Online Self-Review Materials
Online Self-Review Materials
These are self-review materials that anyone can use for review. We prepared these modules in consideration of what we believe are the basic concepts and skills you should have going into calculus. They do not, however, claim to be comprehensive. In these modules, some concepts are presented, sometimes followed by short illustrations or exercises. If you are taking calculus soon, we encourage you to go over these to help you prepare better for your classes.
MATH PREP
MATH PREP
MATH PREP is a short refresher of the basic mathematics concepts and skills that will be required of incoming first-year students who will enroll in Precalculus and/or Calculus subjects in the Ateneo. We usually hold MATH PREP between the Intersession and the First Semester, typically around late July. If you are taking calculus but think that you need a short active review through live lectures and exercises to warm-up your mathematics skills, then we encourage you to consider enrolling in MATH PREP.

MATH 2 (Preparatory Course to Calculus)
MATH 2 (Preparatory Course to Calculus)
MATH 2 is a non-credit preparatory one-semester course for students who need to strengthen their knowledge of precalculus or who have insufficient mathematics background necessary for succeeding calculus courses. We offer this course usually only in the 1st semester for freshmen students. If you are taking calculus, but your degree program does not require you to take a precalculus subject (i.e., MATH 21), and if you think that you have very weak or minimal precalculus background, we HIGHLY ENCOURAGE you to take MATH 2.
