So I have been using the freeclepprep which is very helpful. I have taken two practice exams. I just received a 57/100. which is considered a "fail" on the website. ( Don't make fun of me, this is the second day of actually studying ) I was wondering if I do get 57/100 on the actual exam if i will fail. I know the score to pass is a 50 but idk how that is interpreted. please help.

CLEP scores are standardized, so you will never know your raw score or the raw score needed to pass. In fact, there is no such thing as a raw score needed to pass, because each test has a different set of questions and their difficulty is taken into account when scoring the exam. With that being said, considering that Marketing is statistically one of the easier tests, 57% on the exam will probably usually translate into a score around 50. Note that the Free Clep Prep tests tend to be somewhat easier than the real thing.
