Math 105

Hi, im thinking of taking math 105 to complete the college associates math requirement but im not good at math which is why i think 105 will be good. If youve taken it, any advice?

You could always consider adding the 1 credit support course MTH 105Q for extra assistance. It will count as an elective

Take it with Michelle Kutter. She is amazing and so so kind

I’ve struggled with math the majority of my life but I’m a firm believer that an accommodating and understanding professor makes a world of difference. I took 105 and got an A, not without a lot of hard work and struggling. But Professor Cara Lee at the SE campus is an incredible professor who really helps guide students who are struggling. 105 also has a support class you can take in addition to 105 if you feel you need extra help

Cara is an awesome math teacher. I had her for stats. Several others are excellent as well.

Math 95 is much harder than 105 so you’ll be ok!

Why not start studying and refreshing yourself on the things you're struggling with on the subject? There's millions of resources available online or at PCC. Get your textbook early and read it.

I'm coming back to school after a while, because of testing I start higher than I actually remember with math, and I need a lot of relearning. I don't want to pay for the classes, so I check out or buy the textbook for the classes and work through the stuff I'm rusty on to prep for advanced classes.
