Recommended Prior LearningStudents must have gained 14 Level 1 credits from achievement standards including merit grades in AS91027 and AS91028 or with recommendation from the TIC.
This course is intended for able students who wish to pursue a degree course which includes mathematics. As the course covers an introduction to calculus, a strong interest and previous success in algebra assessments is a requirement.
The course includes Algebra, Calculus, Graphs, Non-right angled Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry and Simultaneous Equations.
A student will be withdrawn from a standard if the teacher is not confident that the achievement of the standard is within the reach of the student or there is no evidence of the student attempting the assessment.
