Most of the math in marketing is probably statistics but don't quote me on that :)

I agree with the above ^.
Stats would be a good factor.
It would be basic math, not crazy AP Calc stuff.

It's a lot of statistics, but it's not "basic math". Some of the marketing research classes here involve a LOT of math and the prereqs are pretty crazy.

Yeah, from what I've heard it can get very difficult. It doesn't always have to be, but it's not going to be a walk in the park either. Depends on what you do in marketing too.
