How does the REA book compare to the difficulty of the actual CLEP college math exam? Anything REA didn't cover that might be on the test? Taking it tomorrow, but just got the study guide today. :willynilly:
Thanks!

that exam was changed a couple of years ago

20% now includes

Financial Mathematics:
* Percents, percent change, markups, discounts, taxes, profit, and loss
* Interest: simple, compound, continuous interest, effective interest rate, effective annual yield or annual percentage rate (APR)
* Present value and future value
* Applications

so if you have an old version of the book you're going to be in for a surprise
