How it fits in the curriculum
Current Registration Info
This is a linked course with a common exam period.
Unlike nearly all other linked courses, MATH 1553 denotes the section letter (eg. A) as "Studio" and the section letter-numbers (eg. A01) as "Lecture". This is likely an error, or maybe a special case resulting from the hybrid/remote class format in 2020. This causes a bug in gt-scheduler where it doesn't do the lecture-studio matching correctly, so please double check your schedule to ensure that the Studio and Lecture sections have the same letter. See: OSCAR list of all sections
Prerequisites
At least one of the following:
- D or higher in MATH 1113 (Precalculus).
- D or higher in MATH 1552 (Integral Calculus) or equivalent.
- 620 or higher on the Math section of the SAT
- 26 or higher on the Math section of the ACT.
Courses that give the same credit
MATH 1554, MATH 1564
Note: Taking MATH 1553 will not give you credit for MATH 1554 or 1564.
