Math 100 and/or 112 are basic math, yea. They are the basic Math classes every kid at every college has to take his freshman year.

Math 121 is a Calculus class. You can't get into the Business school unless you pass Math 121 and Stats 260. I wouldn't say Calculus is some sort of Rocket Science, but it surely isn't basic math, and that Stats class required as much studying and work as any class outside of my 2-3 hardest Senior year Accounting classes. It was anything but a cakewalk. It is the barrier class to keep total morons or lazy asses out of the Business school.

Many thought he was picking Michigan because of their Civil Engineering program. I'm pretty sure we actually had our Civil Engineering department give him and his family a half-day walk through/tour/etc when he came on his visit, it was that big a deal to him.

If I remember correctly he had a 3.5+ GPA and made somewhere in the upper 20's or lower 30's on his ACT. He is a really smart kid.

What about MH 121. Sounds like a Pre-Cal Class.

It's Business Calculus. It's the same class I took 10 years ago.

MATH 121 Calculus and Its Applications. 3 hours.
Prerequisite: MATH 112 or equivalent.

A brief overview of calculus primarily for students in the Culverhouse College of Commerce and Business Administration.

I expect UF to do better. Hopefully the renovated academic center has some effect. Doubling square footage to 81,000 sq. ft. with 50 tutoring rooms, three computer labs, a 100 seat classroom, nutrition and sports medicine.

Looks like exercises science and General Business are Bama's version. General Business was always the course people took when they could do basic math.


You obviously have literally never set foot on a college campus M-F.

The way University's have the Acedemic Support infrastructure in place today, there is not any reason to make average grades.


The funniest thing in this thread is that the guy who composed this sentence is actually trying to pretend to be an expert on all things academic at the university level.

Do you have ANYTHING in your life other then Alabam football/athletics. I mean do you do anything outside of Alabama sports?

Apparently Auburn footballers don't have much either...especially academics.

Clearly SEC related. Not our fault your players can't read good, but ours can read good and know how to do other things good too.



Well played (pun intended)
