Best Prep Materials - CLEP College Mathematics
#4
sirjake Wrote:Cracking the CLEP was helpful to me. But I've never had a "foreign language" kind of issue with math. I was scared of it, but really, I have a logical mind so math comes very easy to me if I just do it. But the highest I had ever studied was probably 8th grade math, so I had to learn a few new things prior to the CLEP. Over all, though, it wasn't nearly as hard as I was thinking it would be. Before the test, I wasn't sure AT ALL that I would pass. I got exactly half of the study guide questions right. Halfway through the actual test, I was sure I'd pass because I knew I had answered so many correctly. And I did pass with a 61.

I liked Cracking the CLEP because it gives you hints on how to get by questions that at the outset look very difficult. But since the answer is right there in front of you (albeit among three wrong answers), you only need to figure out which ones are either wrong or "plug in" to get the right answer. I got the book for a very cheap price off of Ebay. Definitely worth the 7-10 bucks I paid (including shipping).

I've got that book now and will give it some need attention - Thanks!
