Math+Studies

Prerequisites: Geometry, Advanced Algebra

The student will need to be enrolled in Functions and Statistics for two trimesters followed by the third trimester to cover materials specific for the test. This course is designed to get the successful student ready for college and is specifically geared toward the IB Math Studies exam. The topics to be covered include statistics, functions, trigonometry, logic and sets, accuracy, vectors, three-dimensional applications, graph theory, matrices, longitude and latitude, business techniques and sequences. Students must produce a project- a piece of written work based on personal research. The students most likely to select this course are those whose main interests lie outside the field of math. Any junior or senior meeting the prerequisites may take this class.
