On Day 1 of the 88th Meeting of the BCcupms, the president of the BCAMT asked that
BC post-secondary institutions share with the BCAMT their progress in structuring
math-related program pre-requisites as soon as possible.
It was noted that decisions should be made by Fall of 2010 as to which streams will
admit entry into which programs, so that students planning to pursue post-secondary
studies will be able to choose the appropriate stream (Precalulus and/or Foundations)
for grade 11.
In order to provide some perspective and consistency in this planning, progress on this front that
has been made and reported so far at various BC post-secondary institutions is summarized below.

UBC
Senate has passed that the UBC minimum requirements for admission can be
met by Foundations of Math 12 or Pre-calculus 11.
Faculty requirements will vary. Also course requirements will likely be
higher including Calculus which will require Pre calculus 12.
