Analyzing and Interpreting LIT CLEP question

[clepnub]

Hi I am a noob to CLEP's I am getting ready to take the Analyzing and Interpreting LIT CLEP. I bought the REA book on this topic. Does anyone know how the practice exams from this book compare to the actual CLEP?

I don't remember my exact PT scores, but I do remember noticing similarities between the real exam and the REA practice tests. There were even one or two poems on the practice tests that were also on the real thing, if I recall correctly. For me, the REA practice tests were almost harder than the real test. If you get a 60+ on the REA PTs, you should be good to go.

Ditto what Lady Grace said; they are slightly harder but very good practice. Let us know how you do!

clepnub,
I can't speak for the practice tests, but this test eats up the clock like you wouldn't believe. Be prepared to read FAST - concentrate on the questions as opposed to reading the entire narrative or poem and then looking at the questions. Be sure to know literary terms. Good luck. Pass this test and you snag six credits - you can't beat that.
