Information on the College Mathematics Clep?? Please help!!!!

I took the College Math Clep a couple years ago, and I don't remember if any of the questions provided an equation. In my mind the test really only required basic math(addition, subtraction, multiplication, division; know how to raise to a power, order of operations, etc), however you need to understand the concepts enough to take a partially completed equation and finish it. There were some questions that were just conceptual and didn't require math(which was great). I used the College Board Clep Study Guide(got it from the library), and I feel it gives a good representation of the actual exam for any Clep I've taken. I would get the Clep Study Guide and see what equations(if any) are referenced or needed to answer the questions and try your best to memorize those for the exam. You could also look at the topics listed on the exam page of the website and check for any equations or formulas listed there. On another note, the calculator provided for this Clep is pretty nice and really helped me with some of the longer math. When I took it I was able to request a month-long trial of the calculator so I could get used to it(found it on the Clep website on the exam page). I'd definitely recommend that too! Hopefully this helps! Best of luck on the exam-you can do it!
