COLLEGE LEVEL MATHEMATICS PRETEST
COLLEGE LEVEL MATHEMATICS PRETEST
This pretest is designed to give you the opportunity to practice the types of problems that
appear on the college-level mathematics placement test. An answer key is provided so
that you may check your answers. The questions consist of algebra and trigonometry
problems.
The Accuplacer Test is an adaptive test. Depending on your answers to each question,
you may find that you will be tested on some or all of the material in this packet.
The mathematics placement testing includes elementary algebra to start. If you score a
76 or higher on elementary algebra questions, Accuplacer will automatically continue
into college-level mathematics questions. Once you begin answering these questions,
your placement is based on your score in this portion of the exam.
