This project will move towards implementation of the recommendations developed by the Mathematical Association Of America in a previous National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project. The Association recommends that schools nationwide establish prognostic testing and counseling programs in mathematics for college-bound students in the junior year of high school. The purpose of this testing is to allow such students in their senior year to take whatever further mathematics is necessary to minimize the need for remedial mathematics courses in college. In this project members of the mathematics faculties and administrations at three Pennsylvania universities will work with ten high schools in western Pennsylvania to encourage institution of such testing and counseling programs. The experience in these high schools will serve to guide further implementation throughout the state. Cost sharing by the partners will total 230% of the NSF funding.//

该项目将朝着实施美国数学协会在之前的国家科学基金会（NSF）资助项目中提出的建议迈进。该协会建议全国的学校在高中三年级为即将进入大学的学生建立数学预测测试和咨询项目。这个测试的目的是让这些学生在他们的大四学习任何必要的数学，以尽量减少在大学里补习数学课程的需要。在这个项目中，宾夕法尼亚州三所大学的数学系和管理人员将与宾夕法尼亚州西部的十所高中合作，鼓励建立这样的测试和咨询项目。这些高中的经验将有助于在全州范围内进一步实施。合作伙伴分担的费用将占NSF资金的230%
