Applied Math has GOT to be the easiest test possible, EVER. Lots of questions on percentage and other common-sense everyday math that you actually use in real life. If you do Intermediate Algebra through ALEKS, you should be able to ace this test (there are algebra questions) - it was really easy for me because I had recently done them (homeschooling both my kids who are in Prealgebra and Algebra I right now). The textbook sucks, I wouldn't waste my time with it. Really hard to follow, very wordy, questions did not have clear instructions on how to figure out the problems. I got through chapters 1 & 2, and just thought "well, I guess I'll fail this one", that's how bad it was. Gave up on the studying entirely. Took the test about 4 weeks later and scored 90%.
Tech Writing was easy, required no studying - but I thought it was rather vague, which made it more difficult than it had to be. But still easy. 84% with minimal time thinking about it.
English Comp II was ok, not easy, but not hard. No studying required. One thing that sucked - they required answers that were a range of words in length (i.e. "75-100 words" or "at least 300 words"), but then did not have a word counter!!! I seriously wasted valuable time counting words, adding or subtracting things, then going back and recounting! Made me mad. I got the handbook they suggested from my local library, read a few things based on the exam description, put sticky-notes on the pages I thought I'd need (it's open book), and then set it aside until I took the exam. Got 79% with maybe 15 minutes of "study" time. You are allowed a blank sheet of paper, and I only used it to write my word counts on. Oh, and copy each thing you write so that you can paste it into the next section if you need it. At one point, I wrote a quick thesis, went to the next section, and then it said to expound on what I just wrote! But you can't go back to see what you wrote!! Seriously crappy setup for a test.
Public Relations and Managerial Accounting are next up for me, with Feb 28 deadline.
