Description: (5 credits)
Chemistry 20 is an introductory course with a focus on the study of chemical bonding, solutions, acids and bases, gaseous systems, and quantitative relationships in chemical reactions.
Prerequisite:
- Science 10
Description:
When does a model or a theory need to change? Physics 30 students consider
historical experiments and explore why the model of the atom has changed
as a result of experiments and observations of natural phenomena. Students
apply a quantitative approach to describe conservation of momentum in an
isolated system, and they investigate applications and implications of electric
and magnetic forces and fields.
Prerequisite:
- Physics 20
Description: (5 credits)
The physics 20 course investigates the motion of objects and explains why they move. Physics 20 requires a strong math background as concepts are developed with corresponding equations that are used to solve problems.
Prerequisite:
- Science 10
Description:
Mathematics 31 emphasizes the theoretical and practical development of topics in the algebra of functions, trigonometry, differential calculus and integral calculus up to a standard acceptable for entry into all first-year programs in mathematics, science, engineering and business.
Pre or corequisite:
- Math 30-1
Description: (5 credits)
Topics include logical reasoning, probability, relations and functions, and a mathematical research project. This is a diploma course where students will write a government exam for 50% of their mark.
Prerequisite:
- Math 20-2 or 40% (or greater) in Math 20-1
Description: (5 credits)
Chemistry 30 focuses on organic chemistry, thermochemical changes, electrochemistry and equilibrium of acid and base systems. Scientific and technological knowledge is integrated with societal issues and there is an emphasis on communication skills. This is a diploma course where students will write a government exam for 30% of their mark. There is an optional diploma exam in the summer.

Course Overview
Love math? Then this course is for you! In this pre-calculus course, you’ll gain the mathematical knowledge and critical thinking skills appropriate for entry into post-secondary programs* that are math-intensive and require the study of calculus. Topics of study include trigonometry, transformations, logarithms, function operations, permutations, combinations, and binomial theorem.
Note: If you have a particular post-secondary program in mind, you should consult your school counsellor and the post-secondary institution to ensure that this course fulfills requirements.
