Algebra or College Mathematics?
I'm assuming that both of these are probably easier than biology, natural science, or chemistry if you have good math skills but know nothing about the science cleps.
Thanks in advance!

I find the idea of good math skills totally foreign to my nature!!!!!! SERIOUSLY THOUGH COLLEGE MATH IS SUPPOSE TO BE EASIER THAN ALGEBA. I believe the pass/fail percentage rates substantiate this conclusion.
Good luck and when you pass please feel free to take one more for me...Please!!!

If you have good math skills, know very little about science, and make sure that you study before hand, the math CLEP would probably be the easiest of the bunch. Of course, people do flunk the math test, so don't be overconfident. I think math does come fairly naturally to me, but I'm hardly a math genius due to an extremely relaxed high school tenure. Still, I passed fairly easy with a week or so of study. Someone once told me that the CLEP College Mathematics test rewards clear, logical thinking. I think that's emphatically true. There were questions on it that I didn't know a formula for answering, but because it wasn't outrageously difficult, I was able to figure it out just by thinking about it. But again, if you utterly suck at math, that would be a problem.
I'm an engineer. Go figure.

College Mathematics covers lower level math than Algebra--it barely touches on the lowest levels of Algebra, so it should be a lot easier.
