Another excellent resource - just designed for a longer study period.I feel that Clep Precalculus is very Clep-able even with an exclusive, yet diligent study of this book. Clarity and understandable-ness is excellent. For my fellow CLEP students:I studied this book for around 1.5 weeks, and with God's help easily passed the CLEP Precalculus. The book begins at a basic enough level, includes excellent explanations and good practice sections. The only comparable book I've found with more clarity is Saxon Advanced Mathematics.
So not being a "dummy", I decided to leave the "guide" to the idiots and buy a book to "demystify" concepts I learned long ago, and teach me new ones I have not yet come across. I'm a graduate student in psychology and I need to learn some math fairly quickly for my studies. The book has been great so far and is worth the buy.
The book is written for a college course, but it does not really cover thing taught there. It is a good book for review if you took it in high school, but not college Pre-Calculus.
This required me to go online for explanations from alternate sources to fill in the missing info. This book is decent, but I found a couple omissions of important information. Puzzling why this is so.
I am tutoring a pre-calculus student who needes an "accessible" text to augment his textbook. This was a big relief, and I was quite impressed. I am a teacher and have just moved to another state. The company from which I ordered this product had such a quick turn-around that I was able to deliver the book to my student within a week.
