Current revision
There is now an easy way to be better prepared for your university studies.
This course is meant for those of you whose studies include mathematics and who wish to be well prepared before the start of the course. The course is even suitable for those of you who wish to refresh their mathematics for whatever reason.
The course is a designed as a bridging course between high school and university. Even those of you who did well in high school mathematics are recommended to read the course. It is eligible for student financial assistance and can be done entirely on the Internet. The course started is a cooperation between Imperial College and the Centre MATH.SE.
You make your own timetable for your your studies and thus can easily adapt your studies to fit in with any other plans you may have.
Registration and access to forums, support, examination and a personal mentor
The course literature is open and accessible via the Internet. You can register on the course anytime during the year by means of the electronic form on www.math.se and you will be given a user name and password that provides access to all course materials, discussion forums, support, monitoring and tests. You will also be assigned a personal mentor to help you do well in your studies.
Supervision and examination
You may at any time take part in online discussions with fellow students, ask questions and receive guidance from teachers. Examination is via the Internet as you work on the course.

Please note that the course has been designed on the assumption that calculators are not used.
When you get to university, you will not be allowed to use calculators in your "exams", at least in the basic courses. In the advanced courses in mathematics one hardly has any use of calculators, as the mathematics is more about understanding principles than performing calculations. For example, it is more important to understand why 7 + 3 is the same as 3 + 7, than to be able to carry out the additions and get the answer 10.
How to get the most out of this course
- Start by reading the review of the theory in a section and then work through the examples.
- Then work through the practice problems and try to solve them without using a calculator. Make sure that you have reached the right answer by clicking on the answer button. If you do not have the right answer, you can click on the solution button to see how the problem is done.
- Proceed by answering the questions in the basic test of the section you are in.
- If you get stuck, see if this particular topic has been discussed in the forum. Pose a question if you have any queries. Your teacher (or a student) will respond to it within a few hours.
- When you are finished with the exercises and the basic test belonging to a section, you must do a final test to obtain a pass for the section. Here the requirement is answering correctly three questions one after the other in order to move on.
- Having answered correctly both in the basic and final tests, means you have passed that particular section and can advance to the next part of the course.
P.S. If you feel that you are familiar with the contents of a section you can go directly to the basic and final tests. All answer to a test must be correct, but you may redo the test several times, if you do not succeed at first attempt. It is your final results, which appear in the statistics.
