So my last math class was in 1976 - yes, I'm that old! I'm now very math phobic and I need to meet the Excelsior requirement for 3 units of college level math.
Any suggestions from others (who aren't especially skilled in math!)?
Thanks!

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun. Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior. And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.

Although I have not tried it personally (yet), You might be a good candidate for Aleks (
ALEKS -- Assessment and Learning, K-12, Higher Education, Automated Tutor, Math ). There are many posts if you do a search.
They also offer a free trial that may tell you where you are at.
There are lots of math resources at the library. Standard deviant videos, refresher books, etc. I like Princeton Review and Kaplan. The General Clep test prep books have reviews and an assessment test.
Good Luck

Check with Excelsior to see which of the ACE reviewed Aleks courses might fit your needs.
