math placement!!

<p>my orientation is in less than a week.
I need to score enough to get into precalc....what should I study so I can do this.
I've never taken pre cal before just Algebra 2 my junior year.</p>

<p>I just took some of the practice test and I can’t get through it AT ALL!!
I think I am going to end up in College Algebra :frowning: any help??</p>

<p>I even have a book and look stuff on the internet to help, but I can’t get it! lol</p>

<p>If study guides online dont help, I dunno what to tell you.</p>

<p>EXCEPT: You only need a score of 20 on the test to be accepted in Math 3 (pre calc)</p>

<p>how about math 19A?</p>

<p>You need to score 40. The test is out of 60</p>

<p>so basically I can get 20 wrong…</p>

<p>Yep. Granted, I took the practice test and got 18/40 for some reason (I sort of rushed through it). Shouldnt be too much of a hassle to get above 20 wrong.</p>

<p>do you think the real test is easier?
It seems easy to get 20 out of 60 right!! Now I feel better</p>

<p>I took it today and it was similar to the practice test.</p>

<p>ok so I am reviewing the practice test and I can’t solve this problem. I am really bad with fractions…can anyone help?</p>

<p>3/4x < 4+2x</p>

<p>Wolfram Alpha: **** yeah.
[3/4x</a> < 4+2x - Wolfram|Alpha](<a href=“3/4x < 4+2x ]3/4x - Wolfram|Alpha”>3/4x < 4+2x - Wolfram|Alpha)</p>

<p>thanks!! this helps so much! :D</p>

<p>Does anyone know how the scheduling works for the placement test? I’m getting a ride from my ride and it says the placement test will end at around 4:45. Will people not taking the placement test have something else to do because I am pretty sure my friend isn’t taking it.</p>

<p>If you’re not taking the test, you could go on a campus walking tour, attend the breakout sessions, or catch a college tour. Basically when you go to orientation, you will be given a program that will tell you what the schedule will be like. =)</p>

<p>haha I didn’t study one bit and I haven’t done any math since junior year when I took math analysis which was mostly trig. I scored high enough to place into precalc. It really wasn’t too bad, don’t sweat it.</p>
