Bio CLEP
#1
I just began studying for the biology clep. I purchased the REA guide but I heard that the practice tests are very easy compared to the actual exam. Any advice on books to purchase and/or any helpful study tips? Thanks! It's greatly appreciated!

Standard Deviants videos were extremely helpful. I'd suggest you use them in addition to other study materials.

I read an entire textbook, went through the IC cards, used many online study sources and took all 3 Peterson's tests. The key to this is understanding all the terms and using multiple study sources. Good luck! Big Grin

This is a very hard test IMO. there is a ton of information you need to memorize- especially terms.

I used the REA book, IC, and "Biology demystified"

knowing the cell termiology will help immensly.
