REA's book is designed for the student enrolled in a Florida institution of higher learning who wishes to earn an A.A. degree or move on to the third year of a four-year degree program. For this purpose, the CLAST is used as a measure of academic skills at the undergraduate level. This Test Prep contains two full- length exams with detailed explanations for every answer and is based on the official College Level Academic Skills Test (CLAST) exam. Comprehensive review sections include math, reading, English language, and essay writing. Diagnostic tests and drill questions are also provided to aid in skill development and test-taking ability. All of the exam sections and review materials were prepared by Florida professors to help the student pass every section of the CLAST exam. Failing any section of the CLAST will result in the assignment of remedial course work in that subject.
