      MST368 is due to start for the first time in October 2023. More information on MST368 will be added here in due course.  

      An ‘Are you ready for?’ quiz is being prepared for MST368, but is not yet available. In the meantime, the old MT365 diagnostic quiz might be helpful.

      Prior knowledge

      Before taking MST368, you should be confident in
      • algebra
      • functions
      • geometry
      • matrices
      • methods of proof .
      You could gain these skills for, example, from prior study of Essential Mathematics 1 (MST124) or Essential Mathematics 2 (MST125).
