Informed Math Placement

Informed Math Placement

Find the Best Math Class for You

Choosing the best math class is important as you start your college journey. Informed Math Placement will help you choose the class that fits your skills, and guide you toward courses to reach your academic goals.

What to Expect

Informed Math Placement is a tool that will ask you questions about math.

You will be asked:

1. Questions about yourself and your math experience.
2. How do you feel about some math topics?
3. How do you think about the same topics after seeing solutions?

This is NOT a test. Instead, it is a survey to help us place you into a class where you can thrive and succeed.

After You Finish

One to two business days after you finish, you’ll get an email with your math placement. Then, talk with an entry advisor about what to do next.

If you’re unsure of what you want to major in, read about different Degree Pathways before you talk to an entry advisor.

Before You Start

1. 1. Have your Highline College Student ID number.
   2. Find a quiet place with a good internet connection. 
   3. The survey will take about 20 minutes. You can only take it ONCE, so think carefully before you answer. Once you start, you must finish it. If you don’t finish, your results may not be accurate.
   4. Have paper and a pencil ready for notes or math problems.
   5. Answer all questions honestly. If you’re not sure, go with your first answer. This isn’t a test—being honest helps us place you in the right math class.
2. Remember,  you MUST complete the survey in one sitting for an accurate placement result. If you leave the survey unfinished, it may impact your placement.
