They suggest for alegrabic equations on the CLEP to, in a lot of cases, simply plug the answer choices into the equation and see what works. That may seem time-consuming, but I'm no genius when it comes to math but I was able to do that for every possible question in that format on the CLEP today and I finished with 10 minutes to spare and the satification of knowing that I did a good job because the method is idiot-proof, so to speak. Of course, you need to be able to identify WHICH questions you can do that for, which is what instacert can help you with.

Next up, I'll be taking the Social Sciences and History and Natural Sciences CLEP. I hope to take them within the next two weeks. A full report will be issued at that time.
Good luck and happy CLEPing!

Way to go Banta! The info on the math has got to be helpful for those of who are math-phobes and currently pushing through it! I love the idea of plugging the answer into the equasion to see what works - it really seems to work well as evidenced by your fab score!
I took Social Science and History, it's totally doable. I think I posted by experience after the exam and I used the posts from others who took it to guide my studying. Search it and see if you find anything useful. Didn't take Natural Sci. so can't help ya there.
Nicely done!
