The topics required in the TIEC admission test in the mathematics area are:

• Elementary notions of set theory.
• Number sets and their representation: natural, rational, real numbers, inequalities. Percentages.
  
• Powers and their properties. Exponentials and logarithms and their properties. Sorting of real numbers.
• Literal calculus: monomials, polynomials. Operations between monomials and polynomials: algebraic sum, product. Remarkable products. Prime factorizations. gcd and mcm of monomials and polynomials.
• Algebraic fractions. Equations of the first degree and second degree integers and fractions. Integer and fractional inequalities of the first and second degree. Systems of equations and inequalities of the first and second degree.
• Basic exponential and logarithmic equations and inequalities.
• Analytical geometry: Cartesian coordinates, distance between two points, midpoint of a segment, equations of line, circumference and parabola, parallel and perpendicular lines, belonging of a point to a curve. Outline of trigonometry.

A preparation book is available to practice for the Mathematics area:

• "Mathematics Notes: Preliminary Notions" - Educatt (2023)
  by Ballerio Augusto Carlo, Braggion Francesca, Dettoni Maurizio, Gazzaniga Agradi Piercarla, Mainini Alessandra, Messineo Grazia Caterina, Ubiali Gianandrea, Vassallo Salvatore Flavio
  (the volume is also available in digital format that can be purchased here)

In addition, the following is also available for practice:

The online mathematics precourse Theorem. At the first access, explicit consent to the processing of personal data will be requested from all students, even those already registered. Consent, required only once, is mandatory to continue using the platform. To use Teorema, all you need is a valid e-mail address and register at the https://elearning.teorema.cineca.it/login/index.php address , from Create an account, and entering the following code: 123Teorema. At the end of the registration procedure, a registration message will be sent containing instructions on how to access the Teorema course.

Reserve your place by paying the first instalment of university fees (€1,500) via the Enrolment Portal. It is possible to do this even before graduating

After graduating, complete your enrolment.

At this stage you will be asked for your baptismal certificate.  If you do not have one, you can submit replacement documentation by choosing from these possibilities:  

If you've been baptized but can't find your original certificate, you can fill out a self-certification.  

If you have not been baptized, you can make an appointment for an interview with the pastoral assistant on campus. After the interview, you will receive a valid certificate as replacement documentation. In case you have already made an appointment but are still waiting for the interview, you can temporarily submit a self-certification attesting to this situation.

The Verification of Initial Preparation (VPI) is a compulsory test, included in the Tiec online admission test and serves to assess your starting level and support you in the beginning of your university career.

Passing the VPI is achieved with a score equal to or greater than 7 in the mathematics area.

In the event of failure to pass the VPI through the ADMISSION TEST (TIEC) or in the event of a negative result, an Additional Training Obligation (OFA) is assigned to fill the gaps found.

Any OFA assignment is communicated after enrolment on the personal iCatt page.
