I used the REA book it was a good prep for this exam remember it is about half biology

I would also read the REA biology book and take its practice tests before taking the nat sci test due to the overlap. Then if you do well on natural science, you may want to take the bio test also for another 6 credits. Biology is a much better course to have on your degree than natural science because a lot of schools don't recognize natural science for credit but all of them recognize biology AFAIK. It might matter some day if you want to get into a masters in psychology or something that requires biology.

[COLOR="#0000FF"]Have you already taken Clep Biology?

If not, and if you need it anyway, I would suggest taking BIO 1st as the NS exam is basically 50% BIO.[/COLOR]

yes i completed bio last week ...Thank you

Then I think you are in a great place. I haven't taken this nat sci CLEP even though I had planned to, but from what I gather it is 50% bio.
Have you checked out the khanacedemy vids? They are priceless.

REA is gold. Don't forget to do Peterson's test. Pererson's tests are hard but good as a study tool. I gave this exam about 5 months ago after biology. With my experiance I can tell u that if you score high 40s on peterson's you will do just fine on real ones. Hope this helps...
