MDM4U Mathematics of Data Management (Grade 12)
The statistics-and-probability member of the Grade 12 trio, built around a genuine data-analysis culminating project. For business, social-science and life-science applicants it is the strategic third math — rigorous enough to count, distinct enough from MHF4U/MCV4U to protect the average.
Inside the course
Permutations, combinations and counting techniques
Probability and probability distributions
One-variable statistics: distributions and measures
Two-variable statistics: correlation and regression
Culminating project: collecting and analysing a real dataset
Where it leads
Accepted as the math requirement by many business and social-science programs, and a strong Top-6 addition beside MHF4U. Data-literacy carries directly into first-year statistics.
PREREQUISITE
MCR3U or MCF3M.
Assessment & credit
Standard Ontario assessment: 70% coursework, 30% final evaluation. Completion ships as an official transcript, OUAC-listed and recognized by public and private schools.
How we run it
Small groups, online or in person (Markham campus); semester, summer and winter intakes, scheduled around the student’s Top 6 plan.
