general chemistry placement exam

I'm trying to take General Chemistry without taking the proficiency class which is Intro to General Chemistry and I was wondering if anyone know anything that might be on the exam that I should study for? Like any terms or any conversions that I might need to know?

Thanks

Buy this book:

I never took a Chem class in my life. I started reading skimming/through the book 2-3 days before my Chem Placement Test, it's really easy to read. I easily passed. The book was WAY more than I needed to know. And I got an A in Gen.Chem.

At my school they had a form to fill out to chalenge a prerequisite, also if you talk to the department chair, and ask nicely, they could allow you to enroll in the class, or write a letter to allow you to enroll.
