If you're interested in CLEP College Mathematics prep, Varsity Tutors provides the only private CLEP College Mathematics courses you need to know about. The CLEP program was designed to help college students earn their degrees more efficiently by demonstrating their knowledge of intro-level material on high-stakes exams instead of paying for a college class. Taking one of our private CLEP College Mathematics classes may help you build the skills you need to pursue academic success.
The first step in CLEP College Mathematics test prep is to understand what skills you need to zero in on. The following chart provides some basic data:
Knowledge and Skills Required:
- Solving routine, straightforward problems (about 50% of the examination)
- Solving nonroutine problems requiring an understanding of concepts and the application of skills and concepts (about 50% of the examination)
If you're more interested in the specific topics you might want to review in a CLEP College Mathematics course, you can expect to see concepts such as Algebra and Functions (20%), Data Analysis and Statistics (15%), Logic and Sets (15%), Counting and Probability (10%), Financial Mathematics (20%), Geometry (10%), and Numbers (10%) on test day. Since our CLEP College Math test prep involves individualized instruction, you may spend as much or as little time on each of these topics as you need to. For example, a student who could brush up on their algebra skills can focus on it during their CLEP College Math prep. If that same student is more confident in their Financial Math, they may gloss over that topic during study sessions.
A private CLEP Mathematics class may also allow instructors to customize CLEP Math prep to their pupil's unique needs. A visual learner might benefit from visual aids to help illustrate compounding interest, while an auditory learner might get more out of CLEP Math tutors lecturing about how to approach logic problems.
Practice tests can also be a vital component of CLEP Mathematics preparation. The test is administered electronically, so some students might want to gain experience with the interface before exam day. Resources such as a scientific calculator are embedded into the testing software, so learning how to access them could be an important part of CLEP Math test preparation as well.
Practice exams can also help students identify their academic strengths and any areas of opportunity they might need to devote more CLEP Mathematics test prep time to. Here are a couple of practice questions to help you assess your abilities:
Practice Questions:
- Determine the number of diagonals of a dodecagon.
- 24
- 12
- 108
- 54
- In a town of 35,638 people, about a quarter of the population is under the age of 35. Of those, just over a third attend local K-12 schools. If the number of students in each grade is about the same, how many fourth graders likely reside in the town?
- Between 200 and 300
- Fewer than 100
- Between 300 and 400
- More than 400
The correct answers are in bold type to make them easier to spot. If you're unsure why the bold answers are correct, CLEP Math tutoring could help you improve your study skills.
We also try to make our CLEP College Mathematics test prep as convenient as possible. Our Live Learning Platform facilitates digital study sessions, providing the benefits of face-to-face instruction without the logistical nightmare associated with trying to arrange an in-person meeting. We also try to refer every client to an instructor who meets their scheduling needs to mitigate the likelihood of any potential conflicts.

...each school year, each student takes a survey to discover what type of learner they are. As the students are more aware of their own learning style, they can adapt themselves accordingly. I also use the information to adapt my lessons accordingly. I often have the students explain out loud their thinking and their steps in solving problems. This appeals to the auditory learners. Math problems are visually displayed around the classroom through various modes...

I did PhD research in computational chemistry and dream of becoming a middle school math teacher if I win the lottery. PS - My online sessions will frequently be monitored by my chihuahua, Piper. She's quiet, but expect a pop-by :)... Students learn best by doing problems and talking through their process. I like to have a student talk me through what they understand so we can correct any flaws in background knowledge, as well as build a scaffold to solve future problems.
