How to Choose Among Math 1580, 1680, or 1681 at UNT

At UNT, Math 1580, 1680, and 1681 are non-technical math courses that satisfy the mathematics requirement

for the university core and are designed to efficiently provide a college-level mathematics experience to UNT stu-

dents who are in majors and programs that do not require a high degree of technical algebra proficiency. These

courses help UNT students build the quantitative literacy, mathematical affinity, and critical thinking skills re-

quired to fully make use of and appreciate the quantitative aspects of a typical university course experience.

You should always consult your advisor before making your choice.

Entry Level: Math 1681

Math 1681 adds a review of algebra to the underlying course: Math 1680. This course is intended for students

in any major who require or desire an elementary statistics course but who do not yet have college credit for a

non-developmental math course and for whom ACT, SAT, or math placement test scores indicate a review of al-

gebra may be necessary to succeed in a college-level statistics course.

Students who have college credit (with grade C or better) in a non-developmental math course should not enroll

in Math 1681. Students with no placement level on file who are confident in their basic algebra skills are encour-

aged to take the math placement exam (available in GAB 443) to help determine appropriate placement.

Math 1580

Survey of Math.

Topics include probability, statistics, algebra,

logic and the mathematics of finance. Additional

topics are selected from geometry, sets, cryptog-

raphy, fair division, voting theory and graph the-

ory. Emphasis is on applications. Recreational and

historical aspects of selected topics are also in-

cluded.

The topics are not tightly connected and some

topics do not make heavy use of numbers and

equations.

Math 1680/1681

Elementary Probability and Statistics.

An introductory course to serve students of any

field who want to apply statistical inference. De-

scriptive statistics, elementary probability, the

normal curve, confidence intervals, and hypothe-

sis testing.

A sequential treatment of probability and statis-

tics, where topics later in the semester build upon

earlier material and with a greater use of numbers

and equations.

Math 1680/1681 (Elemen Prob and Statistics)

is REQUIRED by these programs

Geography, Kinesiology, Medical Laboratory Science

(including Cytotechnology), Medical Technology, Merchan-

dizing, Psychology, Speech Language Pathology/

Audiology, and all degree programs in the School of Jour-

nalism

Math 1680/1681 (Elemen Probab and Statistics)

is PREFERRED by these programs

Political Science, Sociology, and all degree programs in

the College of Public Affairs and Community Service

Math 1580 (Survey of Mathematics)

is often RECOMMENDED in these programs Arts, Humanities, Music, Dance and Theatre
