    Bus. math was the easiest test I took, I just studied the official guide for two days and that was it. You are allowed to use a calculator on this test and as long as you know how to calculate interest both compound and simple you should be fine.

    The calculator depends on the testing site. My center just gave me a basic 4 function calculator which was all that you really need. A scientific would be nice for the compounding interest problems though...

    Now that I think about there was a calculator on the screen like on CLEP. My testing center also provided me with one and I used it because I can push a button faster than I can click a mouse.

    Do you or anyone else ... know about any practice tests available for Business math ( for free) . Peterson's online doesn't have one.
