4.0 out of 5 stars Good- Almost 5 stars, but not quite, June 3, 2004
By

This book was really helpful to me in my quest to pass the College Algebra CLEP. The problems on the CLEP were very similar to the problems in the three practice tests in the end of the book. There are a few typos, especially in the third test. You wonder how in the world they got there, then realize that it was a typo.

In some parts, I had a tough time grasping the concepts, and the book didn't explain things the best. For those things I used this free and excellent resource:

This book is definitely worth the price, especially for the three practice tests it contains.

Using these two resources, I achieved a 71 on the College Algebra CLEP.

5.0 out of 5 stars CLEP Success!, March 19, 2001
By A Customer
I have bought and studied numerous CLEP guides, and this one has been the best! I was a bit rusty, being out of school for four years, but the guide had 3 practice exams, detailed solutions at the end of each section, and an overview of all the topics that helped me get a perfect score! I don't recommend any of Jack Rudman's CLEP guides however...they go into too much detail instead of effectively teaching what is actually going to be on the test.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great CLEP college algebra review, October 12, 2004
By 
Snoopy (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
I have just recently successfully taken the CLEP college algebra (computer based test) exam after preparation with this book. There are a few annoying typos (which are significant because they affect some of the questions and answers in the practice tests). However, this is still a very good book for test preparation. This book does assume you have some knowledge of college algebra. The best feature of this book is the three practice tests that are provided. If you attempt all the tests and carefully review your mistakes and then retake all the tests until you get most of the questions right, this would be a pretty effective exam strategy. The review material is not as good as the tests. For general review purposes and to brush up on weak areas I suggest another book also by REA: Super Review Algebra and Trigonometry. Eventhough that book is intended for the CLEP algebra and trigonometry exam, the algebra portion provides a truly excellent review for the CLEP college algebra exam as...Read more
