The Boot Camp review modules provide free access to practice problems that will help you prepare to take your precalculus (MATH 96, 112, 113, 114) or calculus (MATH 171/217, 211, 221, 222, 234) course. These review modules are also a great way to prepare for your math placement exam.
You will be given a formative assessment that takes between 1.5 and 2 hours. Based on the assessment you will be given learning resources to help you prepare for your course. This boot camp is intended to help you brush up on topics that you are struggling with. You should spend time on the assessment, not use any outside resources, or a calculator. Then, when you finish the assessment take time learning the topics that the assessment identified as weak areas. You will not earn a grade for the boot camp and it is not intended to replace coursework.
You should complete the Boot Camp review modules no later than the first day of class to be prepared for the semester. The purpose of the Boot Camp modules are to help you prepare for the next semester’s math course, not for continuous review during the course itself.
Below are instructions on how to access the boot camp, as well as guidance on which module you should consider.

Which Module to Consider
NOTE: MATH 211 does not expect students to have a background in trigonometry. If you are planning on using Boot Camp resources to prepare for the course, you do not need to worry about the trig materials, as that is not expected of you to know before taking the course.
NOTE: we strongly suggest that you take both the Precalculus and Calculus Boot Camp modules if you would like to prepare for any of MATH 211, 217, or 221.

I placed into MATH 96, 112, 113, 114, or 171 based on my placement test results and am planning to enroll in one of these courses, but I'd like more review and preparation before moving forward. Which module should I consider?
Consider taking the Precalculus Readiness Boot Camp module.
I completed my MATH 96, 112, 113, 114, or 171 course and am planning on moving ahead to a subsequent math course, but would like more preparation. Which module should I consider?
Consider taking the Precalculus Readiness Boot Camp module.
I did not pass my MATH 96, 112, 113, 114, or 171 course and plan to retake the course, but would like more preparation before doing so. Which module should I consider?
Consider taking the Precalculus Readiness Boot Camp module.
- Note for students who completed MATH 171: MATH 171 is only offered in the fall, so if you wish to take a different math course before moving forward and have questions, please reach out to placement@math.wisc.edu to discuss options.
