Calculus & MBA - Old Rusty Pipe - 03-28-2007

I'm wanting to begin my M.B.A. this upcoming October. I'm currently looking at all of my options for school. One in particular I was considering is Old Dominion University. However, they require Calculus credit in order to enroll in their Master's program.

As of this time, I have about as much math knowledge is probably somewhere between the DSST Fundamentals of College Algebra and the CLEP Mathematics General Exam. If I were sick enough to actually work my way up to the Calculus CLEP, what tests would you recommend I take and in what order to build up my math knowledge.

Precalculus is an obvious step, but are their others. I believe by testing my way up, it will help me stay focused and motivated on the task at hand. I do not expect it to be easy, but ODU does have a good reputation.

Thoughts/comments?

For what it's worth, I don't recall ever using any calculus whatsoever in the 2 MBA programs I was in (UW-Madison, Colorado State).

Of course, each program is different...
