The purpose of this test is to evaluate your knowledge of basic mathematics and statistics required for core courses such as “Analysis of Market and Public Policy”, “Quantitative Methods” and “Introduction to Research Methods.” Those who do not pass the test are strongly recommended to take the “Basic Mathematics and Statistics” class in the Spring semester. The test consists of multiple choices and it will last for thirty minutes. You can find related reading materials in the school library website. Please refer to the attached file for the readings. Full-time students who have not taken the test during the winter session are required to take the test.
