Alternative for TECEP CMP 354 TE Network Technology? - udi - 05-08-2020
Before I sign up for this TECEP, I wanted to check and make sure there wasn't a cheaper UL equivalent somewhere else. I went through the Study.com prep course for it and I'm not feeling very confident. Worried about the $225+ it's going to cost, especially if I have to pay twice.
I started working on Linear Algebra at Coopersmith and it's harder than I thought it would be. The study materials are bare bones. Not easy to learn from the book they chose.

I haven't looked at mine yet, but go get this bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/books/applied-math-productivity-mercury-learning-books If all you want/need is Linear Algebra, it's only $1. Humble Bundle offerings are usually pretty solid, though.

Just did the Linear Algebra exam and it was a lot easier than expected. Did not use the textbook at all.
Highly recommend watching through this series for a conceptual understanding (which makes the math a lot easier to pick up imo) and then supplementing with the provided videos by Coopersmith, which are pretty good too:

Unfortunately I don't have an answer for your question but good luck!!
