I'm 90% sure on this but wanted to make 100% sure!

If I need to get a score of 50 on the test and there are 80 questions; that means that I would need to get 40 or more right to pass. NOT 50 or more right.

Thanks in advance.

What are the easiest CLEP test?

Has anyone taken the Excelsior test American Dream? It's my American dream to pass upper level credits as quickly as possible, so let me know =)

Has anyone taken this test? The pass rate is 70%. Please help me out with your thoughts and answers.

A big thanks to SirJake for his help with this!

The Ethics scenarios are finally up and available. We actually came up with these scenarios to try to help with the Ethics ECE exam, so if anyone uses these and takes the ECE, please provide feedback.

OK CLEP experts - a word problem for ya. You need 6 LL hours. Either Humanities, Accounting, or Natural Sciences would fulfill it.

Your situation is this:
You haven't picked up a science book since the early '90s (who are we kidding, since the late '80s).

You started studying accounting only to find out it's got way more math than expected AND the whole thing about which account to debit/credit just seems to be beyond you (I guess we all have our limitations!)

Humanities...that's like artists and stuff right?

You have from today (after tonight's Social Science exam) until May 23 to study for it. Which would you choose?

Seriously - I'm kinda leaning toward humanities just because it's rote memorization and Snazz just posted about half the exam on another thread (thanks!). But I could push through accounting, I've done some study on it already - just don't feel confident AT ALL. What would you do?

im taking this exam on monday, im taking the practice tests at the AF library link that was on this site, and im using the study guide from passyourclass.com anything else recommended?

Hey all,

Taking Dantes HRM on saturday, thinking about following up in a couple of wks with Humanities. Any advice????

Thanks

I've read on the boards that CLEP Social Science & History is totally passable even without studying. For those of you who have taken it, would you agree?

I've taken almost everything that's on it except western civ and poli sci. And I'm doing something a little blasphemous on this one - I'm really only taking the Peterson's practice exams. My reasoning is that I don't want to study volumes of information. I'm scoring in the low 60% range on Petersons, some are easy and some I have absolutely no idea about. I'm thinking I'm OK but would love any feedback... My exam is scheduled for Thursday after work. Thanks!!

As I've posted in another thread, I've been studying pretty hard (or so I think) for the Microeconomics CLEP I have scheduled for this Friday. I have been studying for about 3.5 weeks now. Initially, I perused through a college Micro textbook and took a bunch of notes. It seemed time consuming but I didn't mind learning the material. Last week, I began using Instacert and also Peterson's. While I am scoring in the high 60's on average with IC, I am having difficulty with the Peterson's mock exams. I studied some more this afternoon and really thought I had a decent handle on the material (esp. since my IC scores were good) but when I went to do test 3 in Peterson's, I only got a 45. :mad: Granted in reviewing a few questions, I made some silly mistakes so perhaps I 'could' have gone over 50 (need a 50 to pass) but I was SO frustrated to see a 45! Also, the Peterson's exam seems a bit harder than the IC questions. Is that typical? It really seems like I've pounded this stuff in my head but perhaps not to the depth of getting a higher score with Peterson's. Any suggestions as I count the days to the CLEP on Friday? If I review my notes and IC, will I be okay with the lower score in Peterson's?? Help!?
