It really depends on your college. Various schools fall under different accreditation systems and thus have different numbering systems. I started out at a community college, which used 111 for Eng Comp and when I switched to a university my next coursewas a 1200.The English Comp class was listed through them as 1100. Math works the same. At my community college basic college algebra was 151 but at my university it was 1150. Check on the website of the college your interested in, most usually have their course catalogs online. You can get an idea of course numbering.

There's not a universal numbering system, but in general:
under 100: "remedial" or introductory classes. Suitable for freshmen, non-majors, and "special interest" classes like "Studying Women in Rap Music" that have no academic follow-up course.
100-200: undergraduate courses. 101 is traditionally the "introduction to" course, but that varies by school. Higher numbers indicate harder courses (aimed for upperclassmen).
200+: graduate and/or doctorate level courses.
300+: doctorate level courses.
Additionally, many colleges use odd-numbered courses to designate a fall semester offering and even-numbered courses to designate a spring semester offering, so MAT111 and MAT112 might be the same math course offered during two different semesters.
Also, often colleges use an "S" to designate that the course is a seminar or an "L" for a lab.

In math, it depends on what courses you completed in high school, because there's a kind of progression in math courses. After you take calculus, things open up and many courses are available.
In English, there are probably several introductory courses that cover different areas of literature and writing.

many times, this is greater clean intense college graduates who finally end up taking greater math remedial than English remedial in college; this is especially because of the factors of public guidance, and how scholars are not being arranged properly.

It will depend on your high school preparation and placement tests.
