I am 100% certain that I messed up on the math. I tried to get them all correct and I think I did but only completed 8 or 9 of the math questions. I will practice and gain more speed for the next time.. the only thing that is messing with my head now. what test is harder to pass MASS,POSS or POSS,MASS :-[ I was thinking that the MASS was the easy part.

I've taken the POSS alone, MASS alone, POSS/MASS combo probably dozen times now (all passed, just time constraints with job searching led me to taking the tests instead of getting a score transfered)... the POSS is the "harder" of the two for sure. But mine have always been POSS C, not POSS B, so I'd wager the MASS/POSS B would be equal.
As far as the "math" part, my only advice is to not be afraid to skip questions. Wasting time on a triple conversion when the next question is a single conversion is a waste of time. Was your math section like 16 questions long or was it several pages? The problem with these tests, its hard to practice make believe conversions...

It was the short math test. So passing the Math on the POSS should have been a PASS on the MASS, making me want to look at line tracing section a bit more. remember my test did not have Charts and Graphs section. I could not do more then 9 of those in the time limit.

The line test is your graph section. Was it the frequency chart with hearing and stuff?

no it was line tracing kind of like print reading. Follow the line from a number to a letter
