How to Use the PowerPack
Step 1. Build a solid understanding of how to solve exam problems
- Our OneStop PDF contains the essential problem types with step-by-step detailed solutions
- Our companion OneStop Excel files contain all the problems from the above PDF. There's a version which includes the solutions and another which is ready for you to practice with.
Step 2. Drill to crush problems on exam day
- Use our web-based templates to generate an infinite number of problems
- With practice, you'll become more efficient and accurate on exam day
Step 3. Practice in an Excel/CBT like environment
- An Excel file is provided for each source reading. It contains key practice problems to help you hone your skills.
Step 4. Practice Exams
- Two original practice exams and one hybrid CAS exam are available with quick and easy access at your fingertips. The hybrid CAS exam is a compilation of released CAS problems which aren't in the Battlecards. It should give you a solid feel for how the CAS writes exam questions while letting you practice with unseen material in an exam-like environment.
Step 1: Step-By-Step Solutions
Our PDF contains the core problems and detailed step-by-step solutions in this file.
Our companion OneStop Excel file allows you to try solving these problems at your own pace.
Exam 8 OneStop Excel Solutions
Step 2: Drill Web-Based Template Problems
After practicing problems for a while, you can find yourself memorizing the numbers rather than understanding the steps. You'll gain a better understanding of the underlying concepts by applying them to different scenarios.
Download the Excel file below to use with the web-based templates. In your browser, navigate to the web-based template you want to study and then open the Excel file to the same problem. Highlight the problem in your browser and copy it before pasting using "Match Destination Formatting" into the highlighted cell within the spreadsheet. Voila! You can now solve the new version of the problem in Excel and then type your answer(s) into the browser to grade it. Repeat as many times as you want to practice the problem.
BattleCards - Web-based problems
Step 3: Practice in an Excel/CBT Environment
There is a single Excel file for each source reading. It contains key practice problems for you to hone your skills on.
Step 4: Practice Exams
| Excel Problems | Excel Solutions |
| Practice Exam 1 | Practice Exam 1 Solutions |
| Practice Exam 2 | Practice Exam 2 Solutions |
| CAS Hybrid Exam 8 |
To get the most out of these files you should attempt each exam under timed conditions and then grade yourself carefully and harshly. The solutions provided contain all of the details; this may be more than needed on the actual exam but will help you understand the problems better.
Alice: "I've heard the F2 and F4 keys don't work in the Pearson environment. They do work in our Excel files — you've been warned for BattleDay!"
