3.0 out of 5 stars Nice book, unreliable software, October 15, 2007

This review is from: CLEP Humanities w/CD-ROM (CLEP Test Preparation) (Paperback)
As a returning student 18 years out of the game, I wanted to get off to a big start in a subject area where I already felt pretty comfortable. I picked the CLEP Humanities because it would get me 6 hours of credit for knowledge I already possessed. After getting 61/70 correct on the College Board's "official" practice exam, I scheduled a testing date.

Then I got cold feet, decided a little preparation couldn't hurt, and ordered this book. The good reviews here were encouraging, and the "Testware" software put REA above the rest for me.

The good: The book contains concise yet comprehensive reviews of all the major subject areas covered on the test. (I thought I was pretty savvy, but I still learned a lot.) Each chapter ends with a drill on the subject matter -- including material that wasn't covered. If you learn all the material presented, you're sure to pass the test. There are three complete practice tests, all of which turned out to be much harder than the...Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Advanced CLEP test, be careful without background knowledge, May 1, 2006

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: CLEP Humanities w/CD-ROM (CLEP Test Preparation) (Paperback)
This review volume was quite useful. I looked at everything Amazon was offering (from the collections with about 50 pgs. specific to the CLEP to full Humanities volumes like this), the reviews LAPL had in circulation, and some used book stores' offerings. I settled on this book and another called Mastering the CLEP (both written recently and I assumed would give me the most update scenarios for questions and review examinations).

Overall, I was impressed with REA's volume. However, a word of caution. The Humanities test is CHALLENGING. REA's book can seem like a maze of unfamiliar, and highly detailed, or even irrelevant ideas, people, places, dates, and movements if you are not well versed TO BEGIN WITH in the Humanities. The review book itself was simply a sweeping overview of the major sections of the possible test questions: Literature, Music, Art, Philosophy & Anthropology type subjects. It covered things in more broad catagories (Enlightenment, Industrial...Read more

This review is from: CLEP Humanities w/CD-ROM (CLEP Test Preparation) (Paperback)
REA has done again on December 21, 2005 when they came out with this stand alone CLEP Humanties study guide! Unlike most reviewers I have taken this CLEP test several times. But don't be scared off by this fact-when I first took the CLEP Humanities test it was for a law school and at the time there was no computer or REA study guide at the time and I did awful-I got a 380 which at the time was really bad. Of course back then the non-CBT test went a lot slower and you had a quarter point subtracted from your final score for every wrong answer so you spent a lot more of your test time agonizing as there was no possible reward for guessing with out at least looking the question over thourougly. To pass the Humanities CLEP test you will need to take the sample test every day for at least a month until you have memorized the material but in order to push yourself over the top you will at the very least need to purchase College Boards official study guide for the CLEP exams and with pencil...Read more
