REMARKS:
WTW 114, 128 and 126 are for students who intend taking Mathematics at the 200 level.
WTW 134 does not generally lead to admission to Mathematics at the 200 level and are intended for students who require Mathematics at 100 level only.
Students may take only one of WTW 114 or WTW 134.
WTW 133, WTW 143, WTW 144, WTW 153 and WTW 154 are modules in the BSc: Extended Programme and bear no credit for the BSc programme.
