| ! Interpret data with caution. Estimate is unstable because the coefficient of variation (CV) for this estimate is 30 percent or greater (i.e., the standard error represents 30 percent or more of the estimate). |
| 1 Basic mathematics contains review or remedial mathematics including basic, business, consumer, functional, or general mathematics.. |
| 2 Other mathematics contains extremely low-incidence subjects including trigonometry, integrated mathematics, statistics or probability, and advanced mathematics courses such as precalculus and calculus. |
| 3 Students who did not have the appropriate parent/guardian were not included. |
| NOTE: All estimates are weighted by W1STUDENT. Totals may not fall within the range of categorical values due to missing data. Details may not sum to 100 percent due to rounding. |
