Math Placement Exam    

The Math Placement Exam is a Texas A&M University required examination used to assess a student's math skill level. This is an important tool to help your advisor determine which mathematics course you are ready to take. Students will be directed to take one of the two MPE exams based upon their major. Please note that this exam does NOT grant credit - it is purely for placement.

All students must take the math placement exam BEFORE attending their New Student Conference. The MPE is required for ALL majors, but the specific exam and requirements vary by major. Students in Marine Engineering Technology, Marine Sciences, and any College of Engineering majors are required to complete the MPE as an online proctored exam; all other majors take it non-proctored.

It is essential that you do not use a calculator on this exam and follow the Aggie Code of Honor.

An Aggie does not lie, cheat or steal or tolerate those who do.
