Best Answer

You should focus on (the big ticket questions):

  • Polynomials and the Quadratic Equation -- Factoring!
  • Linear equations
  • Inequalities
  • Graphing (focus on slopes)
  • Systems of equations
  • Exponents (both integer and rational)

See related links below for some good resources. I would also go through at least one algebra book, eg. Painless Algebra by Lynette Long (Walmart sells it online).
