I don't have a test, just a comment. To be successful a student need not be a math whiz. Some basic arithmetic and algebra knowledge will suffice (fractions, percents, slope, intercept, use of formulas & graphs). Good reading comprehension, solid writing skills, and the motivation to do college-level work are more important than higher level math.
