Guidelines for Math Course Selection (Handout)
• Alabama High School Diploma requires students to earn FOUR credits in math.
• Of those four credits, students must complete: – Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, or their equivalent.
Equivalents: Algebra IA & IB equivalent to Algebra I
• The math course a student begins with determines all math options to follow.
• Once a student starts this math sequence, he/she cannot go back & take a lower level math.
*See Options on Handout: Option 1 finishes with the highest math possible with each subsequent option slightly lower
