College Algebra CLEP: Can anyone tell me what the calculator will be like?
#1
I'm aware that there is an onscreen calculator, but the only material that collegeboard had that simulates the test (that I'm aware of) is on a 16-bit program that my computer will not run. I have a Ti-36x pro and I'm not sure how much I should learn to use it, because I don't know what will be available on it that won't be available on the test calculator. I actually don't even know how to do simple things like choose the "b" in a "logb(x)" calculation on a calculator and I don't know if there is some standard way of doing this, or it varies by calculator, or if there are instructions about this somewhere, or what. I don't know if the test will allow me to do things like calculate a number "to the (whatever number) root."

Can anyone who has taken the college algebra CLEP or has relevant material give some insight?

So you went to this page on the CLEP website (College Algebra | CLEP) and selected the link to attempt to download the trial of the calculator?
