Back on the Wagon
#1
I passed 2 CLEPs today. They were the first ones I've taken in over a month since I got really sick and had to have surgery. (nothing major just inconvenient) I got a 53 on American Government and I crushed A&I Lit with a 74.

To be honest I didn't really study for the Amer Gov except going over the major Supreme Court cases and Constitutional Amendments which I thought there would be a lot more of on the test. Most of the test was on what powers each branch of the government has and political trends in recent years. I was kind of thrown by the trend questions but there were also quite a few "what does this chart or graph show" questions that were easy in there as well. Maybe it was just my version of the test but I would say there were only 10-15 questions about landmark cases and amendments out of the 100 questions on the test and I just expected more. Oh well, a pass is a pass especially on a CLEP.

Hopefully I will be able to get back to my scheduled plan of 2-4 tests a week. Next up Social Science and History, Business Law, Marketing and Into Sociology.
