I've taken so many DSSTs and CLEPs that I've lost count. Yet, this one is proving to be my demise. What is a good resource for it? I've been doing Khan Academy and I've basically hit a brick wall where nothing's making any sense anymore. Some have said the Khan Academy is overkill for the College Algebra CLEP so I'm wondering if that's the case with the TECEP as well. The TECEP study guide lists Khan Academy as a resource though.
Secondly, I started using Saylor and it seems considerably easier. It involves a lot of basic Algebra I concepts and I'm not sure how useful it is for the TECEP. TESU lists Saylor's MA001 Course as eligible for MAT121 with them. I'd take this instead of the TECEP but I hit the limit for transfer credits to TESU a long time ago. Is it worth it to just take the MA001 course on Saylor and then retake some other TECEP I've already taken as a CLEP? Just curious if that would even work.
Side note: Are the answers wrong on the TECEP study guide? For example I got 1) C; 2) D; 3)C; 4) B; 5) A. Yet they have as their answers as 1) C; 2) B; 3) B; 4) B; 5) D. That's not even close. I can see they printed question number 3 wrong so did the answer key get messed up or something? I'm surprised TESU hasn't corrected this yet if that's the case.
I'm scheduled to test tomorrow and fully expect to fail sadly. Pretty mad at myself for putting myself in this situation where I probably would be better off taking the course but really don't want to pay the cost plus suffer from the bad grade so I'd rather test but also know it's unlikely I'll pass the test.
