Mission
The primary
mission of the Summer Math Academy 2014 is to equip students with the
information and tools necessary for success in the mathematical sequences of
classes they take at El Camino College to graduate or transfer. A
secondary goal is to provide students with another opportunity to save semesters
taking non-degree applicable or non-transfer level pre-requisite math classes by
scoring higher on the Mathematics Placement Test (MPT). By making
the MPT scores significantly higher for placement into higher level courses than
the general student population, the Academy will facilitate student success for
its students testing into higher level classes.
