Mathematics Majors Exit Exam                        NEXT EXAM DATES:  August 2009  (exact date, time, and place TBA)

As part of the Senior Capstone experience, students entering SDSU in Fall 2006 or later must pass the Mathematics and Statistics Department Exit exam. The first exam will be administered to Seniors in the 2009-2010 academic year.  The exams are written and graded by Math Departmental Faculty.  The passing score will be determined by the Exit Exam Committee. 

Students must take and pass both parts of the exam during their senior year.  A passing score on both exams is a requirement of passing the second semester of Senior Capstone.  A grade of "IP" will be given until the exams are satisfactorily completed.  Students are encouraged to sit for exams prior to their senior year for practice, but only the exam taken their senior year satisfies the Capstone Requirement. Students will have 3 opportunities to pass the exam. 

The exams will be offered in August (the week before the Fall semester), January (the week before the Spring semester) and May (The week after final exams). 

Students graduating in Spring (2010 or later) should begin by taking the August exam.                   Students graduating in Fall (2010 or later) should begin by taking the January exam.
