Well i am getting ready to take my test Saturday I feel ready plus I am going to spend the rest of the week living at borders like this past weekend.
My question is this once I pass (which will give me enough for my AA

) everyone keeps suggesting taking the Natural Sciences clep since its about 50% bio anyways - has everyone that has taken both been able to use all those credits.
It makes complete sense to take it at that time but there are also a few other cleps and dantes I want to take before the summer semester start up at my local community college.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Carlos

My wife and I had no trouble with them applying. They're different enough, apparently.
I'm an engineer. Go figure.

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Navy"]YES.....Make sure that you have BIOLOGY down FIRST! I studied for biology for 3 weeks, took the exam (and passed) and then studied the other sections for the NS exam for 2 weeks took that exam (and passed).

I failed biology the first time I took it (I'm retesting next month). I tried studying for the Natural Sciences test to make up that course- - but I was doing horribly -- so I just decided to retest on biology.
I hope that you have more background than I do on the Natural Sciences... otherwise.. if you don't need the Natural Sciences -- and you're like me ... I would just stick with the biology.

(That's just me, though....)
You'll do GREAT!!!!
