Do you need a fast
intense review of high school math?
Do you really want to move into more challenging science or technology
courses quickly?
ACC offers two types of "fast" developmental math classes.
- In the Fall and Spring semesters, most "fast" developmental math
classes are offered in sessions that meet for only part of the
semester. This allows you to take two of the classes during one
semester. In the summer session, some sections of the developmental
classes are offered in the short sessions, so that one can complete two
sequential courses in one summer. See the ACC schedule for classes
scheduled in the various short sessions. Bear in mind that the material
covered and the amount of homework is the same for a course no matter
how few weeks the course meets. Developmental math courses in the short
sessions require a very substantial time commitment.
- In the Fall and Spring semesters, we have aa few sections of a
combined Elementary-Intermediate Algebra course, which meets about six
hours per week for all 16 weeks, uses one textbook for the entire
semester, and covers the material of both courses. To enroll for this,
look for MATD 0290, Intermediate Algebra, in the schedule. Every
MATD 0290 course listed is part of a "fast-track" pair. When you
enroll for it, you are required to also enroll from the section of MATD
0370, Elementary Algebra, which is attached to it. If you have
questions about this, contact our Administrative Assistant at math@austincc.edu.
Allow as much time for homework as if you were taking two
separate courses in mathematics, since this one course covers the
material of two courses.
