math 1a03 as a pre-req
i am talking math 1ls3
but does that mean that i cant take any second year courses that have math 1a03 as a requirement.?

or is it that i must attain a 10 in 1ls3 to subsiitute it for 1a03?

You need at least a 10 in 1LS3.

You'll need to achieve a 10 or higher in Math 1LS3 in order to be able to substitute it for Math 1A03.

Edit: If you do not achieve a 10 in Math 1LS3, you will have to take Math 1A03 in order to take Math 1AA3 which in turn allows you to take upper year math courses.

so if u do not plan to take any upper year math courses then is it good enough?
also do any of the upper year chem and bio courses require math 1a03?
and if they do a 10 in 1ls3 act as a subsitute?

If you don't plan to continue with math, 1LS3 is fine. And yea, a 10+ in 1SL3 allows it to substitute as 1A03.

If you're scared that you might not be prepared enough, you can always wait for more seats to open in August when people start switching courses!

Chem and Bio courses don't require Math 1A03, atleast none that I know of. But you should look at the programs you want to apply to next year and see if Math 1A03 is a requirement for it.
