MAT 120 Placement Test

The MAT 120 Placement Test will determine your eligibility to enroll in MAT 120 – Calculus with Business Applications.  Certain entry level courses have no prerequisites; students who wish to enroll in MAT 112, MAT 115, MAT 118, or MAT 183 may do so without a placement test. Enrollment in MAT 196 – Calculus A requires a separate diagnostic test if a prerequisite is not met.  More information about the MAT 196 Calculus Readiness Diagnostic Test can be found at UNCG Calculus Readiness Diagnostic Test.  More information about the STA 108 Statistics Readiness Diagnostic Test can be found at UNCG Statistics Readiness Diagnostic Test.  Additional information about mathematics placement criteria at UNCG can be found at UNCG Mathematics Placement Information.

The placement test must be taken for the term in which you wish to register.

Students should contact their advisor or send an email to mathstats@uncg.edu if they have any questions, have trouble registering for the test, or are experiencing other technical issues.

Students with disabilities should contact the Office of Accessibility Resources (OARS) for testing accommodations.
