Who should take this class
Students are ready for this class if they have mastered arithmetic with fractions, decimals, percents, and negative numbers. Most students who have completed a typical Prealgebra class are ready for this course.
Please note: Our Algebra sequence will not likely match up exactly with your school's. We have named our courses so as to help new students decide which class to take. Most students who have completed a Prealgebra class are ready for this course. Those who have completed a typical Algebra 1 class should consider taking our Algebra 2 course. Those who have completed a typical Algebra 2 class should consider taking our Algebra 3 course.
