(critical reading and writing (CRW) course)
CRW course4
  1. You may complete Mathematics 1000 in the fall semester and an elective in the winter semester.

    • You must be eligible for Chemistry 2400 in the fall semester of second year.
    • The prerequisite for Chemistry 2400 is a minimum of 60% in Chemistry 1051; or Chemistry 1001 (Grenfell).
    • It is strongly recommended that Chemistry 1051 be completed before beginning the second year of studies. It will be possible to take Chemistry 1051 in the spring semester. Students attending Grenfell Campus will normally complete Chemistry 1200/1001 in their first year.
  3. If you're registered in Physics 1050, you must also be registered in Mathematics 1000 (not 1090). If you're registered in Physics 1051, you must also be registered in Mathematics 1001.
