Hello! First thing that I want to say to you is, DO NOT FREAK OUT! I am not great in math either, and I did extremely well on the math portion. It was my best section. Things to know are: -convert mixed numbers to fractions (and vice versa) -know how to solve proportions and ratios (cross multiply and divide) -know how to subtract/add/multiply/divide fractions -know your conversions! 4 quarts in a gallon, 2 pints in a quart, 2 cups in a pint, 8 oz. in a cup (there were not many of these...maybe two, but don't miss points that you don't have to miss -know what the prefixes for conversions indicate: milli-, deci-, centi-, etc. -there were a few word problems, but not many. go slow on them because they try to throw you off. -know order of operations: parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction. there was one or two questions were they ask you to solve, and if you do not follow the correct order, you will get the wrong answer. There is a calculator on the test screen. You can open it and close it whenever you need to use it. A great resource for reviewing this material is the Khan Academy on YouTube. You can go to their page and watch tutorials that will give you an overview of what you may have forgotten. It's a great resource for math. I would also recommend that you study up on grammar. I did well on it, but it was my worst section. There were some things that I have not covered since grade school. -Stephen
