Enlist in one or both of our IN-PERSON Math Boot Camps! The UH Manoa Department of Mathematics will conduct intensive non-credit courses for students who want to review the algebra and trigonometry concepts covered in the math placement exam. Led by two department Graduate Assistants in each Boot Camp course, students will strengthen their math skills through short lectures, group work, and practice problems.

These courses are designed for students who want to bridge their high school and college math courses with a review, want to revisit math concepts prior to taking the math placement exam, or who have already taken the math placement exam but want to place higher on the exam* by reviewing concepts and taking the placement exam again.

There are two camps, both offered at no cost:
Boot Camp for College Algebra, for those who desire an algebra refresher, on August 7-10, 2023 from 10am – 3pm (including lunch break) with office hours available after class each day. Room: KELLER HALL 303.
Boot Camp for Trigonometry, for those who seek to brush up on trigonometry and logarithms, on August 14-17, 2023 from 9am – 1pm with office hours available after class each day. Room: KELLER HALL 303.

To Register for one or both Math Boot Camps, please complete our Google Form. Registration REQUIRED to attend the Boot Camp(s). Registration Form due Friday, August 4, 2023 by 12 noon Hawaii Standard Time.

* To be allowed another attempt at taking the placement exam, you must attend each day of the camp(s) for which you register.
For information on the concepts covered in the placement exam, please go to the MATH Placement Webpage.
