Intermediate Algebra
Cohorts formed around the level and year
of the student's first math enrollment.
Headcount
(each
student
counted
once)
Outcomes within three years of first math enrollment.
The two-semester versions, MATH-254A/B are treated
as separate attempts within the same level.
*Note: Due to changes in method, numbers
may differ slightly from previous versions of this page.
