Hi I am new to this site and I am kind of confused. I am taking the biology clep next week and bought the peterson tests to see where I'm at. I scored a 74 on the first test. This was 74/100 but the clep is scored on a 20-80 system where I need to make a 50 in order to pass. My question is how do I compare the 2 and are the peterson scores a good judgment of how I will do on the actual test. Any advice is appreciated!

That is much higher than I scored on a Peterson's biology practice test. You are ready.

Okay thank you!! I sure do hope so. I am currently going though IC flash cards but it seems like this will take forever.

@RMC0224 as far as I know there is not a way to figure out how a Peterson score compares to a 20-80 score, but most of us feel at least 50% correct on the Peterson is OK to pass a CLEP. Personally I always tried to get at least a 60% on the Petersons and I passed all of my CLEP with room to spare. If you have joined IC don't forget to check the specific exam feedback thread, it is a great source of suggestions and study help.
