Please find below a list of links to resources for various topics that may appear on the Mathematics Skills Test and/or the Practice Test. For some links, there are alternates available in the event that a server goes offline.
It is strongly suggested that you use the Practice Test as a diagnostic tool to help guide your review and then carefully go over material, especially in areas where you may be weaker. We also strongly suggest that you work through at least some of the examples on your own, particularly in areas that you may struggle with. Please note this list is not exhaustive. It is provided as a courtesy to give students a place to start in reviewing Pre-Calculus content.
