[SIZE="2"]Thank you. I completely agree with you. When I am implied that I was older to be pursuing a degree, I meant when compared to a traditional college student. This was not meant to say that I think 30 is too old - or 50 for that matter. It is never too late to have a happy childhood, and it is never too late to go to college. Cheers!

Take the other two Petersons. You have already paid for them. If you get above 50 on them, take the test ASAP (Monday) before you forget everything hilarious
I am new to CLEPs so what are Petersons? I have to take this test this summer and I am trying to figure out the best way to go about preparing for it.

Peterson's are CLEP practice tests available online (for a $20 fee for 3 full length practice tests) or if you are lucky for free thru your local library portal (depends where you live). The nice thing about them is the feedback you get after you do the test - you can see what you did wrong and what the correct answer is AND you get a good gauge of whether you are ready to sit the actual exam.
There are a lot of resources for a number of the exams - have you checked out InstantCert and the Specific Exam feedback forum? I would start there if I was you.
