BAT/CRT Cut Scores

As of Fall 2018, the department is using the ALEKS assessment as its mathematics placement test. For continuing students who have scores on the old math placement test (that consisted of the Basic Algebra Test and the optional Calculus Readiness Test), those scores can still be used. See the tables below to determine your eligibility to register for various mathematics courses based on the BAT score. Which mathematics course you should enroll in depends upon your chosen major and your placement test score.  If your placement test score does not qualify you for the course you need, you must enroll in the prerequisite for that course, or you may take the ALEKS assessment, accessed from mathematics placement test webpage.

Basic Algebra Test

Your Score Qualifies You For
0 – 7 DVMT 101 or MATH 100.
– 9 MATH 100 or MATH 102.
10 – 11 MATH 100, MATH 102, MATH 105 or MATH 109.
12 – 13 MATH 100, MATH 102, MATH 105 or MATH 109.

If you plan to major in education other than the middle/secondary program, you may register for MATH 204.
14 – 19 MATH 102, MATH 105, MATH 111, MATH 115, MATH 231 or MATH 237.

If you plan to major in education other than the middle/secondary program, you may register for MATH 204.
20 – 25 MATH 105, MATH 111, MATH 115, MATH 119, MATH 231 or MATH 237.

If you plan to major in education other than the middle/secondary program, you may register for MATH 204.

If your Basic Algebra placement score is 17 or above, and you are interested in taking a calculus course—either MATH 211 or MATH 273, then you must take the Calculus Readiness Test (see below).

Calculus Readiness Test

Your Score Qualifies You For
0 – 10 MATH 115, if your major requires MATH 211;
MATH 119, if your major requires MATH 273 and your BAT score was 20 or higher;
MATH 102, if your major requires MATH 273 and your BAT score was lower than 20.

11 – 14 MATH 211;
MATH 119, if your major requires MATH 273 and your BAT score was 20 or higher;
MATH 102, if your major requires MATH 273 and your BAT score was lower than 20.
15 – 25 MATH 211 or MATH 273.
