If you're planning to take a CLEP test, this book is the best way to predict how you'll do. I've seen the tests in some review books, and they're way, way off the mark. The questions in this book were written by the College Board,the actual testing agency, and they're very similar to the actual ones on the test.

This book helped me shave 20 credits off of my requirements to graduate! I only wish I would have found out about the CLEP program sooner (before I took other classes that I could have most likely tested out of).

The key to studying this book is to do the practice tests, and also know what the non-answers are (If the answer is "B"...also study what "A", "C" and "D" are in relation to the subject in which you are studying). They WILL show up in the test. I PROMISE YOU!

This book is a good buy!

I used this book as an outline to help me study for some of my CLEP tests, and I passed every single one. This book is pretty accurate. At the beginning of whatever test you wish to take, the book gives a description of the exam, and a pretty detailed list of all the topics that are going to be on the test. I went to the library, checked out textbooks pertaining topics listed, read up on it to refresh my memory, and did example problems for each sections. AFTER all that, I worked on the exam that came with the book...kind of like a test for all that studying. It may sound like a ton of work, but I would rather do all of this in my own free time than to sit in class for a whole semester. The downfalls I find about this book are as follows: It does not include a full-lenght exam...which may be a good thing because it's short and to the point; and it does not include explanations to the questions on the exam. You have to find them on your own, but it's not hard if you have all those...Read more
