Sometime in the last several days I recall seeing a conversation about preparing/reviewing for the math placement exams at Beast and available resources. It was not the original topic of the thread if memory serves. I've tried the search function, but am only coming up with general conversations about placement tests. I may not be using the correct terminology for my search. Does anyone recall the thread where this conversation took place, or can anyone point him toward possible resources for placement prep, specifically in math.

I think this is the recent thread you are talking about. Somewhere in this thread I believe there are links to study guides. https://www.serviceacademyforums.com/index.php?threads/placement-testing.79146/#post-788495
 
Due to the challenges presented by Covid last spring our son felt he might not be ready for placement exams (math) for USNA. He utilized online free MIT lectures and spent hours reviewing and prepping. He wished he had used it sooner, excellent instruction according to him (I don’t speak math). Maybe that would be an option for you. It must have worked as he validated and he said it was worth the prep.

This is exactly what he is worried about. He's been online since last March and worries that they haven't covered the ground necessary to test where he wants to test. Thanks for the resource suggestions.
