    Statistics is considered a math course at EC; I don't know if it is at TESC.

    Well, TESC classifies it as math, but I don't "think" it counts as your math requirement. I have stats in my degree plan (under math) but I am also taking MAT105. Hummm, well, now that you mention it, I don't see why not since it has the alpha MAT. Good question! It's worth a call to your advisor. (my advisor "Mr. Speakerphone" scares me- I'll let you call)

    EC does count Statistics (MAT220) towards the requirement of 12 credits at or above the level of College Algebra.

    Exclamation correction
    I wanted to correct my previous post. I went into my official evaluation of stats, and it is actually listed under natural sciences- not math! The alpha numeric is STA201. My BA eval is for liberal arts. Hope that helps.

    My Math requirement is all I have left for my Lib Studies BA from TESC, I was hoping that Stats would do it.

    Ughhh...very unhappy.

    Well, if you feel that you can't CLEP out of math (I didn't think I could, I had never taken algebra in high school, just a pre-algebra class twenty-something years ago) I went ahead and enrolled in the TESC Math for Liberal Arts. It is MAT105. It counts, and it really is easy. Also, community colleges offer classes too. If you decide to do it, I'd be happy to pass along my text books to you when I'm finished.
