Precalculus CLEP Material

[dfrecore]

Honestly, if I were you, I'd just go take the darn test and see how you do.  If you pass, you're done.  If you're not, you can see what it entails and then study from there.

I'd do either Khan Academy, or Modern States.  It can't hurt to just start and see how it goes.

If you just want to take an actual course at a CC, you could do Rio Salado.  It's more expensive than other CC's, but it has rolling start dates (so a class starting every Monday), and a choice of 8 weeks or 14 weeks.

Thanks for the quick response. So, the issue with that is I have to wait 6 months to take it again if I fail, but by then my university affiliation will expire and I'd have to re-enroll and take the course. So, I have to get it right the first time. I'm just concerned learning over 1000 pages plug doing practice problems will be very difficult to do in the 3 months I have. This is my only chance to graduate. I don't have $6500 to pay for the class and a loan isn't an option because it's less than half-time. Like I said, I need to get it right the first time.

The re-test period is 3 months, not 6.

The re-testing period for CLEP is 3 months; however, my school's policy is that 6 months is required - https://sce.nyu.edu/export/sites/scps/pd...nation.pdf

Dumb question - how would they know if you took it and did not pass?  All you have to do is opt to get the score sent to you (so not to the school), and then if you pass, send it to them via CLEP transcript.  If you don't pass, take it in 3 months and then again, send it via transcript.  CLEP will not tell them it's a retake.
