clep3705, I am thrilled you posted this since I was going to use Peterson's a couple days before the test to give me a gauge for passing. I am following the advice of many on here and using:
#1 Khan Academy (love it, but worry I am over studying things that are not on the test, since it's not set up for "CLEP College Mathematics" I am just putting in the key words, watching the videos then taking the quizzes till they turn dark blue (mastery).
#2 College Portal Video's the one on sets was very helpful
#3 Instant Cert flashcards, good, but there are some formulas I have never heard of in my life on there
#4 Official College Board CLEP College Mathematics Study guide. I did terrible on it completely raw. This is the first time that's ever happened to me. Math is like a different language to me, and I could use a good interpreter before I fully understand the language.
Any tips for CLEP College Math not already in progress above? This is my LAST CLEP before my last two TESC courses, I can't take the last 2 classes without finishing this blasted CLEP College Math. Previous to this cram session, I was on track to complete the math requirement with ALEK's, found out only a couple weeks before it went down...that was no longer a viable option if I wanted to enroll in Jan 2014 TESC courses.
Any advice?
