To the Student: After your registration is complete and your proctor has been approved, you may take the Credit by Examination for Algebra 2A. WHAT TO BRING • sharpened No. 2 pencils • graphing calculator • paper ABOUT THE EXAM The exam will consist of 40 questions. It is based on the Essential Knowledge and Skills for this subject. Since questions are not taken from any one source, you can prepare by reviewing any of the state-adopted textbooks that are used at your school. You must review all of the concepts of algebra. If you do not have a textbook or any other study material available locally, you may contact the Outreach & Distance Education Bookstore. The bookstore carries the textbook used with our Algebra 2A Distance Education course. The textbook is Glencoe Algebra II by Glencoe/McGraw-Hill (1998). There is also a sample examination included with this letter. The sample exam will give you a model of the types of questions that will be asked on your examination. It is not a duplicate of the actual examination. It is provided to illustrate the format of the exam, not to serve as a review sheet. The formulas included with the sample exam will also be provided with the CBE. For more information about CBE policies, visit http://www.ode.ttu.edu/takeacbe/ or see your course Policies & Forms Guide. Good luck on your examination!
