Welcome to Athabasca University's Mathematics Diagnostic Assessment. This online test contains 70 questions that will help you assess your mathematical skills. Based on your score we will recommend which Athabasca University mathematics course you are likely ready to take successfully.

Instructions

This evaluation consists of three sections, A, B and C, of increasing levels of difficulty. If you are quite confident about your mathematical knowledge, you may skip Sections A and B, and do only Section C, which checks skills mastered at the senior high school level.

no calculator useWe ask that you do not use a calculator for this evaluation, however, you may use pen and paper for manual calculations if needed. If you do not know the answer to a question, click the SKIP button that will appear towards the top of the screen. Knowing which questions you are unsure about is as valuable as knowing which ones you are confident about. 

 We also recommend you DO NOT use the browser BACK button.
