About the Mathematics Assessment
Taking the Assessment
The Mathematics Assessment contains 25 multiple-choice questions. You will be provided with a standard four-function calculator to use. You have one hour (60 minutes) to complete the assessment. Academic accommodations (ex. extended time for assessment completion) may be used with the proper documentation.
If you are a current Fisher student, details about when and where to take the assessment will be provided during your freshman and sophomore seminar classes.
If you are a transfer student, contact your transfer admissions representative for details and a schedule for taking the assessment.
Passing the Assessment
You must score above 84% (21 out of 25 questions correct) to pass the assessment. You may take the assessment twice. If you do not pass the first time, we strongly recommend that you consult with a tutor to review the problems that you missed before attempting the assessment again.
