THanks in advance.

Avi,

The Precalculus exam officially replaced the "College Algebra & Trig" exam on June 30th, 2006.

I would assume that much of the same material is covered. However, the ratio of algebra to trig questions is different on this exam. Also, the style of questioning and the approach to the subject matter has apparently been adjusted too.

As I said, it's too new for anyone to be able to give you specific feedback, unless they have already taken it in the last two weeks.

My advice would be to go through the official CLEP exam description/breakdown and make sure that the topics in your Algebra-Trig book line up with it.

Best of luck to you,
Snazzlefrag
