Talk:Number Theory

Prerequisites for Number Theory?

I'm not familiar with Geometry and Algebra II. Are they courses packaged into another course, or are they separate courses in and of themselves? My school does not have any courses that deal only with Geometry and/or Algebra II. We have Math A, Math B, and various calculus courses, so if I have completed Math B, would it be safe to assume that I will be able to take Number Theory?

Do you go directly from Math B into the calculus courses? I would think then you've complete the pre-req. I know at our school, on level students complete Algebra II during their Junior year. Geometry is before that, and covers a lot of theorems and proofs. Have you done that? Algerbra II is... a whole lot of stuff. -Emma
