zapproximator Wrote:Thanks for posting that! I did feel a bit skeptical...is it really THAT simple? So do you think I should be aiming for at least 70%ish to pass?
My goal is to score pretty high on the CLEP since I'm a high schooler and I'm taking Psych for the first time, so I want to actually learn it and score in the 70s (if I can, of course!)
My test starts in 2 hours! I'd better get to a bit of review.
I got a 72 with about two weeks studying, but I DID study! I remember a lot of questions about the structure of the brain, the eye, etc.
I'm sure you'll do well, good luck!

Thanks!!
What resources did you use to study?
I feel super confident with the brain stuff, but I'm pretty uncomfortable with the eye/ear/nose.

I hope this response is not too late, sorry.
I used the REA book, only, and I looked up stuff on the internet that I wasn't sure about.

Synicaal Wrote:Please, please take these numbers VERY lightly. These tests are not as simple as oh I just need 40% of them to pass, I would be willing to bet money that a 40% on any clep exam would be a FAIL. For one these numbers are 4 or so years old. I believe another study said you need a minimum of 50% but the REA guides say 66%. Most people will cling on to the percentage that is the easiest and not the most practical. Aim high on these exams, the best exam I did was Psych and its also the only test I KNEW I passed before hitting the score report button.
Either way good luck with your remaining credits!
For my exam (biology) the link says you need a score of 50 (graded from 20-80). The link that was posted says score of 50 = 46 questions right. The test has 115 questions so 40% is whats needed to pass. Maybe it's different for other exams thoguh. Whatever the case, it did make me feel more confident and better about taking this CLEP (since it is known as being one of the hardest). Passed with a 59 today. cheersmate
