Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL

Expert's Insight: "THE 6-CREDIT FAST PASS: BUT WATCH OUT FOR THE 'FOUNDATION JUMP' TRAP" The Good News (Official UBC Policy) If you score a 6 or 7 in IB Math: Analysis & Approaches HL, UBC Vancouver grants: MATH_V 100 (3) + MATH_V 101 (3), a total of 6 credits. In plain English: you've essentially cleared UBC's s...

Expert's Insight: The U of A's MATH 100/101 sequence is a different beast than IB AA HL. Your 5 means you'll be starting from scratch, and the pace will feel brutal from day one.

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take McGill grants credit for Calculus 1 only, not Calculus 1 & 2. With a 5 or higher in IB Math AA HL, you receive an exemption from MATH 140 (3 credits), meaning your first McGill math course will be MATH 141 (Calculus 2), not Calculus 3. MATH 141 is a 4-credit course covering the def...

Expert's Insight: A 5 gets you into MAT 1320, but the calculus there is taught with a brutal, proof-heavy focus. Your IB intuition won't save you when they demand formal definitions from day one.

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take Whether IB Math AA HL actually saves you a course at McMaster depends almost entirely on which faculty you're entering, and for the two programs that need calculus the most (Engineering and Business), the answer is almost certainly no. McMaster does not publish a subject-specific IB cr...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take The campus split on this subject is the largest of any IB course at U of T. UTM awards the complete introductory calculus sequence, both MAT135H5 and MAT136H5 (1.0 credit total, Yes/Yes/Yes), waiving the entire first-year calculus requirement for most programs. UTSC also awards a full ...

Expert's Insight: Waterloo's MATH 137 is a different beast than IB Math AA HL. That 5 won't save you from the rigorous proofs and abstract thinking they expect from day one.

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take IB Math AA HL earns two credits at Western — Calculus 1000A and Mathematics 1229B — but the Math 1229B half cannot be held alongside Mathematics 1600A/B, the first-year linear algebra course required by most upper-level modules in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, and Econo...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take Queen's awards MATH 121 (6.0 units) for IB Mathematics HL with a score of 5 or higher, in every faculty except Smith Engineering, which grants no credit. MATH 121 is a full-year calculus course that satisfies degree requirements for most science and arts programs. However, students pur...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take Your IB score determines whether you get generic math units or specific Calculus I + II credit, and that distinction matters. According to SFU's official IB transfer credit table, a score of 6 or 7 on Math AA HL earns MATH 151 (3) + MATH 152 (3),...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take Math AA HL earns transfer credit at UVic, but the specific course awarded is determined individually, not pre-published. UVic's official IB Transfer Guide lists Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL under the credit-granting table with the designation Individual assessment, meaning a...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take UCalgary's IB credit for Mathematics maps to MATH 249, one of three parallel first-year Calculus I courses, and whether that credit works in your favour depends almost entirely on which program you are entering. A score of 5 or higher earns MATH 249 (Introductory Calculus), a 3-unit si...

Expert's Insight: Expert's Take IB Math AA HL is among Dalhousie's most substantive transfer credit awards. A score of 5 or higher earns both Math 1000.03 (Differential & Integral Calculus I) and Math 1010.03 (Differential & Integral Calculus II) , the complete first-year calculus sequence for most science pr...
