The problem with sequences of integers is that they are ambiguous. I hate to construct a perfectly valid algorithm only to get to the "wrong" answer, because most tests allow for only one solution.

I think what they try to go for is the simplest answer. So if you are getting it wrong, you are probably thinking about it too much.

like with one of the above examples: 1,5,2,6,X is just 1+4 = 5 - 3 = 2 + 4 = 6 - 3 = 3 + 4 = 7 - 3 = 4 and so on

For this kind of panic-studying, with the single purpose of doing well on this exam (no hidden agendas of actually learning anything...) I think the almost always best method is the exam-o-ez (transalted from the swedish word "tenta-lätt") method.

Namely: find old exams with full solutions. Study them, learn the solution algorithms, and learn (memorise almost) to reproduce the solutions from the problem only. Chances are that many of the question on this years exam are similar enough to some of the previous ones.

One thing I would learn to do is finite differences; it'll really help in terms of the polynomials, but the speed may be slow.
