Product Review

The CLEP, or College Level Examination Program, is a battery of tests given as a set of college entrance exams to adults returning to the classroom after an absence of several years--perhaps after working at a full-time job or raising a family. This updated manual presents three full-length sample examinations in each of the test areas covered in this book and provides answer keys, a scoring chart, and answer explanations for all exams. It also presents subject reviews in five CLEP test topics with additional practice and review questions. Test topics covered are the English Composition Exam, the Humanities Exam, the College Mathematics Exam, the Natural Sciences Exam, and the Social Sciences--History Exam.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, except for the typos, February 6, 2009

This review is from: Barron's CLEP (Paperback)
I have used a number of study guides for taking CLEP tests and this one was pretty good, except for one major problem: there were a lot of typos. Names were misspelled, letters were jumbled on the multiple choice answers and also on the Humanities practice tests, some of the pictures they were using were so dark and small that I could not make them out.
Overall, it was a good purchase since it gave me a better idea of what I needed to study.

3.0 out of 5 stars What's here is good, but not complete - Humanities, July 27, 2010

This review is from: Barron's CLEP (Paperback)
Any study guide should be considered just a sample of what MAY be asked, and this is very true regarding the humanities section. I recommend using several sources in addition to this one. Just tested out and barely made it. My rough guess is that 10% of the 140 question test had content related to what was in the sample tests.

Good luck, JJ
