Shmoop University Math Courses

From the link in the post you replied to:

Quote:https://www.shmoop.com/college-credit/

The American Council on Education’s College Credit Recommendation Service (ACE CREDITÂ) has evaluated and recommended college credit for 13 of Shmoop's courses, listed below.


U.S. History 1492-1877 (College)

U.S. History 1877-Present (College)

Modern European History (College)

Pre-Algebra I (College)

Pre-Algebra II (College)

Algebra I (College)

Algebra II (College)


Mathematics I (College)

Mathematics II (College)

Mathematics III (College)

Geometry (College)

Finite Math (College)

Pre-Calculus (College)

Hard to read that in any way but that Shmoop is claiming that those math courses are ACE recommended. I agree that one should go by what ACE says.

I did not see that link, I only was looking at their actual courses under "Courses|College". I can't even figure out how you would get to that link from their home page, it's not an option! If you search their site for "College credit" or "ACE", that linked page doesn't pop up at all.

Looks like they've gotten approval, but they haven't been listed on ACE yet, so maybe ACE is a few days behind? Either way, I certainly wouldn't take the course for credit until it was on ACE.

Actually it's on the first page of results if you search for "ACE" from their front page. But that brings up the possibility that they don't think this page is "public" yet since they didn't link directly to it. If so, their web guys should be ashamed of themselves, you NEVER assume someone won't find a "hidden" page. If you don't want it seen, you don't publish it.

Last night when I searched, neither ACE nor College Credit came up for me - it does this morning though.

Not that anyone has posted here.

Here's a guess:

Algebra I AND Algebra II (must take both for the credit) probably equate to MAT-121
Pre-Calc probably is MAT-129
Finite Math probably equates to MAT-110 (I took Finite Math at CC and this is what it came in as)
Geometry may come in as MAT-361
Math I, II, and III are unknowns
Pre-Algebra I & II should be developmental and won't transfer in

If anyone has transferred Shmoop math courses, please chime in!

TESU takes the CLEP College Mathematics as 6 credits in MAT-102, General Math I, MAT-103, General Math II. I suspect that they will do the same for the Shmoop College Math series.

In my local HS, the Math I, II & III replace the old Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II sequence (common core thing). So they may be considered college-level, but there's just no way to know until someone brings it in.

But that's for high school. These are College Math credits, like the College Math CLEP.
