College Algebra
#1
How forgiving is the college algebra clep? I'm about 50% on ALEKS College Algebra and it is absolutely burning me out now. I've already put about 56 hours into it and I just feel it dragging even more. I'd like to see if I can knock the CLEP out at this point but still a little terrified. Anyone have any recommendations or experiences with going from ALEKS to the test? I've read some feedback previously but didn't really seem to answer my question.

I may look into that, I'm currently at 55% on ALEKS and to be honest trying to get over the hill here to 70% is just getting brutal. Thanks for the tip.
