Students expecting to test-out of a class with a test-out should not enroll in the course. The student must be enrolled at Northwest for the period during which the test-out is administered and credit is awarded. The student must apply for test-out using the methods outlined below. A test-out may not be taken to supersede a "C", “D”, or “F” grade. A letter grade of “A”, “B”, “C”, or “D” will be assigned. Test-outs are offered for the classes listed at the bottom of this screen.
A test-out must be purchased at least 2 weeks before the add date for the block where the class is offered, and the entire test-out process must be completed two business days before the add date. Students are required to pay this fee before the online exam will be proctored. Once you have purchased the test-out, an email will be sent to the School and you will be contacted about setting up the exam. Because the exam will be proctored in an online format, an additional application, Respondus Monitor, will need to be purchased and downloaded for $15 (payable to Respondus Monitor).
A test-out for the classes will be offered within the first three days of the fall and spring semester. A student must register for the test-out by filling out a test-out form (see links below) and paying a $70 test-out fee. You should email the instructor in charge of the test-out immediately after paying your fee.

An explanation of ways in which mathematics is used to understand the contemporary world.Â
A course for helping students apply functions to model practical situations. Students will apply concepts of algebra to problem solving while relying more heavily on technology when using nonlinear situations.Â
A course to prepare students to take calculus. Topics include functions and graphs, equations and inequalities, and analytic geometry and trigonometry.Â
A course intended to prepare students for fields of study that would require a high level of algebraic reasoning for Calculus. Topics include the foundational principles of functions, the analysis of functions, and algebraic reasoning.Â
Trigonometric functions and analytic trigonometry.Â
An introduction to single-variable calculus. Topics include intuitive treatment of limits and continuity, differentiation of elementary functions, curve sketching, extreme values, areas, rates of change, definite integral and fundamental theorem of calculus.Â
An analytic exploration of elementary mathematics concepts, including set theory, operations in numeration systems and bases, number theory, operations and applications with rational and real numbers, probability and statistics, logic, relations and modular arithmetic.Â
