Math placement exam study guide questions

If students come to the McHenry Ref Desk asking for the math placement exam study guide, you can refer to this page on the Undergraduate Affairs site to explain what we have. Neither library has exactly that for this test, but S&E does have a textbook and an elementary algebra outline with some practice problems. McHenry has a set of videos put together by a UCSC professor that reviews pre-calculus. What seems to help them most is the bottom link for the practice exam.

Precalculus book by Cohen

If you get asked here at McHenry for the Precalculus book by Cohen, we don't have it. It is only at the Science & Engineering Library:

Students are seeing this on the math placement test advising page, and I've let them know that it needs to be changed. Several students have already come by only to find that it is not here:
