Program Title: ARE YOU READY FOR CALCULUS version 2.01
PC-SIG version 1
 
    This well-written pre-calculus tutor program helps students review the
basics of algebra and trigonometry. Specifically, this program gives
quizzes on all sections of algebra and trigonometry which are essential to
calculus. In fact, there are two programs on this disk, one to prepare you
for Calculus I, and another for Business Calculus. The differences are that
the quizzes are easier in the Business Calculus section and there are less
topics to review. Once the program has been loaded, you'll have several
choices to pick by hitting the proper letter. The instructions are well
written so you can start using the program right away. The quizzes are
multiple-choice type and the different answers are well chosen. The program
is very nice with different window layouts. If you don't know how to answer
a particular question, you just ask for help. You get a help screen which
covers the topic of your quizz and you can go through the topic as many
times as you like. If you want to take calculus next quarter or semester,
it's probably time for you to ask yourself if you're ready for calculus by
loading this program and finding out your score at the end of each review.
