LEVEL III

The following is a list of units that will be covered in the Level III mathematics program

You will be assessed in a variety of ways (tests, journals, exercises, projects, effort, exams, attendance, etc…) with the intention of improving your understanding of the concepts presented.  This will also prepare you for Level IV Mathematics and to be successful in your future endeavors

Please note: with regular attendance each section should take 3-5 weeks to complete
