In SIS on screen 014, the two codes are labeled:
- PRIM. MRT CODE
- SECOND. MRT CODE
Your current math placement is identified by a 3-digit number (called the MATH1 Code) followed by a single letter (called the MATH2 Code). The codes are available in Student Link, under Academic, Placement Exams, Math Readiness Test (even if you did not take the MRT). (To change your codes, you must engage in our placement process.)
Print Your Math Placement Results
To print your math placement results to use at Pima Community College, you must make sure that your name appears on the top left of the document when you print in Student Link using the PrintView option. In Student Link, go to Preferences, Display Settings, and "check this box to display student name and SID on all PrintViews." Then go to Student Link, Academic, Placement Exams, Math Readiness Test, and print using the PrintView option.
Explanation of MATH1 Code
For placement purposes, courses are grouped into levels. For historical reasons, each level is identified by a three-digit number called the MATH1 Code:
| MATH1 Code |
Eligible Courses (subject to MATH2 Code restriction) |
|---|---|
| none | See note (†) |
| 050 | Pima MAT 092 |
| 100 | PHIL 110, Pima MAT122 |
| 200 | All of the above, plus LING 178, MATH 105, 111, 112, MCB 181 |
| 220 | All of the above, plus MATH 120R |
| 230 | All of the above, given to students who have completed Math 111 only. |
| 245 | All of the above, plus MATH 113, 115A, 160, 263, 302A, CHEM 103, 104, 105, 151, 152, PHYS 102 (For 115A you must also separately meet UA Catalog 115A Prerequisites). This code is given to student who complete MATH 109. |
| 250 | All of the above. Similar to 245 code. |
| 350 | All of the above, plus MATH 124, ENGR 102, PHYS 131, 141 |
| 400 | All of the above, plus MATH 124H, 125 |
| 450 | All of the above, plus MATH 125H |
The table above is organized by MATH1 Code. We also have a similar table organized by course.
If you have a MATH1 code that is not listed above, please go to Student Link, Academic, Placement Exams, Math Readiness Test to see your list of eligible courses.
(†) If your MATH1 Code is empty, you either have not yet gone through our placement process, or were unable to place. You can take the Pima placement test to see whether Pima Community College offers a course you can take.
