Okay, I am trying to decide which one to take first. My mom wants me to take College Algebra this summer since I just finished Algbra II. On the other hand my cousins think I ought to take Principles of Management first to kind of get my feet wet and see what the testing center is like. Math has always been my "thing" and the course I took was one of the hardest ones available. I've looked through a practice College Algebra test and I only saw one or two questions that weren't covered in my Algebra course. What do y'all think I ought to do?:confused:

If you JUST finished the Algebra II course, then I would definitely go with taking College Algebra first while everything is still fresh in your mind. Principles of Management is an easy one to study for (for most people), so it won't hurt if you wait to take that one second.
Just my two cents'!

I am eventually going to take both of them. The problem is which one to take first. They were saying that I could study Management for about a week and then take College Algebra right after? :confused: I don't know.:confused:

while algebra II is fresh in your mind you should start with that.
Then you could continue on with your Management and not worry about college algebra. =)

I would always take the test for which I have the freshest knowledge. College Algebra for you--without question.
