Today's the day! I've been studying over this past weekend but not as hard as I should have been. I'll let you all know how it goes. Feel free to add any last minute tips, especially things that caught you off guard!
Edit: I've been following the advice in this thread so far:

Still running into some issues. I'll probably post a few questions later if I can't figure them out!

The above thread is fairly spot on. I nailed the exam with a 76! I was surprised to not use the quadratic formula even once, and more permutations than I expected so definitely memorize that formula (they like to pair those with fill in the blank)! Logic in all different forms was also frequent as well as geometry and probability questions. The official collegeboard practice test is a really good guide. I'm sure the absolute value questions tripped me up. I despise those. I used my calculator for nearly every problem as well as all my scratch paper. The calculator was my buddy!
Good luck to anyone who has this exam next

See my posts in this thread
http://www.degreeforum.net/general-educa...atics.html for information about what to study.
I recommend not studying complex numbers at all. Without knowing them, you'll only be able to make a 77. Think of all of the time you'll save not studying complex numbers.
