I'm preparing to take the College Mathematics CLEP examination. Does anyone have any advise?

I just took it a couple of hours ago (paper and pencil version). Some of it was a joke and some of it had me saying "WTF?" My biggest problem, which caused me to guess on at least ten questions, was not knowing about functions and graphing those functions. There were all kinds of questions about f(x) = x2 - y blah blah blah. I had no clue.
I am not sure if the IC flashcards cover that stuff, but they probably do. I only spent about two hours with IC flashcards last night before taking the test this morning. The flash cards were great for the logic portions and a few other things though. Also make sure you understand mean, median, and mode.
Check the exam specific feedback it's really good.
Good luck! And wish me luck, the results take four freaking weeks!

Yeah, I took College Mathematics. I'm really not that good in math but I passed. I used the Rea book, IC and annenberg media.com was really good too. Hope it was helpful.
