Daughter passed Humanities today with a 53!
#1
I was worried because she was only scoring around 35 on the Peterson's practice tests. I had her go through all the IC cards yesterday. We were both VERY relieved and excited. Big Grin The natural science clep is next. She actually passed the REA practice test for this one back before Christmas--barely. So reviewing for it starts tomorrow. Thanks for sharing my excitement.

Jen that is great!!! I'm so happy and excited for her. Humanities made me sweat, so it's wonderful to hear that your daughter did such a good job!

I'm putting off having my DS study for this one. I thought it was so tough and I'm not sure I've given him the most well-rounded education to this point when it comes to the arts. I am wondering if there is a way to slowly ease him into it.

How long did your DD take to study for this from beginning to end?

Congratulations to you both. That is one exam that for some reason always scared me. I'm glad I never had to take it, but might attempt it just to see what I get, now that I don't need it.

We haven't really "studied" the arts. She loves music and drawing. We have a Professor Noggins History of Art game that we've been playing lately that she loves. She is really into mythology--thank you Percy Jackson. So this was a strong area for her. We did 2 weeks of flashcard prep. I didn't sign up for IC until Tuesday when I was so nervous. She says she prefers the IC cards.
