Pre-College Math
This class is designed for Seniors "only" who need a fourth year of math and possibly a second Algebra. Seniors who have not passed Algebra 2 prior to taking this course MUST PASS the class in order to graduate High School. Students who pass the class with a "B" average or better and score a "C" or higher on the final exam are exempt from the CCBC math placement exam and will be able to take credited classes right away. This is an amazing way to save hundreds if not thousands of dollars by not having to take up to 4 non-credit math classes at CCBC.
