(I am a Physical Therapist and need 22 general education credits)
I have to appear in 3 CLEP exams on 20th and 21st December 2016.
Principles of management
Introductory sociology
Introduction to educational psychology
The first 2 subjects are not giving trouble but somehow Educational Psychology is giving me panic attack.....I have taken a couple of prep test but in every test there are 2-3 new (unread by me) concepts .... it feels the subject is HUGE and no matter how much I am prepared there is always a new word, definition, theory or concept which was not in the text books I have studied.....I have the list of topics from CLEP course outline for all three subjects.
Anyone who has taken this exam please tell how much MORE do I need to study as only 20 days are left in exam and is the course outline by CLEP enough to pass the exam.
Any last days tips for Introduction to sociology and Principles of management would be helpful too.
TIA
First thing... Breathe!!
Ok now that you have done that, if you haven't taken CLEP exams before you won't know going in that you cant possibly study every single concept or term. Many make the mistake of going way to deep when studying for these test and overload themselves. I recommend using the REA CLEP test prep books. They seems to cover everything you will need to know to PASS... Keyword is PASS not Ace it, not get an 80, but to PASS the exam. Most schools give a pass/fail for CLEP exams so scoring a 70 looks no different then scoring a 50(assuming your school is 50). If you don't want to purchase the REA guide you can always sign up for a month of Instacert here and you can study for all three exams for the month price.
Education Psych - after looking this one up Instacert is probably a better value

A question for you , have you taken the Intro to Psych CLEP or Course, and/or the Human Growth and Development CLEP and/or course. Psych and Human Growth and Development build you up for Educational Psych.
SIDE NOTES:
1. Principle of Management is supposed to be the easiest CLEP according to free-clep-prep.com , I'd make sure to have the terms down and basic concepts.
2. Sociology was an easy CLEP exam, best tips for you, know the TERMS, and the People behind theories and what those theory's are. I managed a 55 but my style of prep was wrong for that one.
