Congratulations! Does what I said before make sense now? You articulated it better than I could.

I understand completely what you were saying, I actually thought about it about half way through the test. I would have a couple of questions where I was thinking I must have studied all the wrong materials and then a couple where I knew the answer before I finished the question. The funny thing is I had plenty of time left, so I went back through almost all of the questions and they made more sense the second time around. Thank you for all of the advice.
I see that you are taking College Math at some point. I took it about a month ago. I am not a math person, but I made a 59 after a lot of studying. The REA book was a big help, but the actual test was a little easier. Again, there were a couple of shadow problems that I was not expecting.

How much studying? I have been sitting here for a few hours trying to soak it all in. I am so bad in math that I was just looking at the free trial of the Aleks program. I started in Middle School math ( I know, pathetic)just to be sure I have all the foundation I need. It's too easy but some things I know how to do but am learning the correct terminology. I can't wing it. I have the REA book but it looks like it is much deeper than, according to people who have taken it, the material in the exam. I definitely am going for a pass only. I would be overjoyed to get a 50 on this one. You have no idea how math phobic I am.
I tell ya, if I pass this one first time around, party at my house!!!!
