Being the idiot that I am, I didn't take a math class my senior year, and while taking the math placement exam for my college, the questions were obviously basic, and I simply couldn't remember how to solve them. The exam forces me to take college algebra.

Since I have already learned this stuff before, I was thinking about just re-learning all the material and taking the CLEP exam. I can't seem to find anything about the college algebra CLEP exam. Should I just buy a textbook and study it? Or is a guidebook going to go over all the material again?

Help!

Hi, I would get a good book, I saw some at Borders yesterday like College Algebra DeMystified, it has practice exams and reviews the material, there are CLEP study guides as well but I don't know how well they review the actual material, hope this helps!

Try this: Virtual Math Lab - College Algebra

Also read the specific exam feedback on instantcert.com (discount code is 85722).
There's two pages of detailed info/resources from people who have taken the test.

CLEP Forum - CLEP Study - CLEP Testing - Study Guide and Strategies

I have heard that the REA books along with the Petersons practice tests (which can be accessed for free if you have the right link) are the best resources out there. There are other various sites that offer prep courses that arent bad but I would definetly start out with the REA book.

Good Luck
