GRE Math subject exam Prep-- Pre-calc

For those of you who are preping, or have taken it already, what did you use to prep for the pre-calc section of the GRE subject exam in math?

 

[Diffy]

I don't remember there being much if any Pre-Calculus math on the GRE Subject. I remember there being a ton of Calculus.

While I was prepping for the test I only focused on Calculus and beyond. If you know your calculus then the pre-calc stuff (what little there is) is no problem.

And, yes, I was very pleased with my results.

There are several resources available for prepping for the pre-calc section of the GRE Math subject exam. Some popular options include review books such as "Cracking the GRE Math Subject Test" by Princeton Review or "Kaplan GRE Subject Test: Mathematics" by Kaplan Test Prep. These books typically cover all the topics tested on the exam and include practice questions and full-length practice tests.

Additionally, online resources such as Khan Academy and MathHelp.com offer free and comprehensive lessons and practice problems for pre-calc topics. It can also be helpful to review your old pre-calc notes and textbooks to refresh your memory on key concepts.

In terms of studying strategies, it's important to focus on understanding the underlying concepts rather than just memorizing formulas. Practice solving problems without a calculator as the GRE Math subject exam does not allow the use of calculators.

Finally, make sure to time yourself when practicing to get a feel for the pace of the exam and to identify any areas where you may need to improve your speed. Good luck on your prep and on the exam!
