College Algebra ~ Calculator? - DixieGirl - 08-10-2007
I know that there is a calculator built into the College Algebra test, but if you download the CLEP tutorial it has one calculator while the REA computer test has another. Which one should I practice with?

REA is a separate company and uses their own calculator. The calculator used in the actual exam is the same as the CLEP tutorial on the collegeboard website.

I have math next. I checked the collegeboard website for the CLEP tutorial, but I only found the exam guide for $10. Where is the tutorial (or is it the same thing as the exam guide)?
Thanks!

When I said tutorial, I meant the CLEP sampler. It is available for download at:
CLEP: Preparing
Just click on CLEP Sampler.

I do not believe it matters which one you practice with, just take as many practice exams as you can. Also, you will not need a calculator when taking College Algebra. You will have the online calculator and I believe you can bring one, if you like, but the test is designed so that you do not require one to answer the questions.
Good luck!
