As of this very minute, I have set in stone my next three CLEP. I have decided to post this bit of unimportant information as a way to artificially create some accountability. Now that this has been announced, I have to do it, or I will lose face as an anonymous user on an internet forum :roflol:
1. Western Civilization I
2. Western Civilization II
3. Principals of Macroeconomics
Each of these three exams are a sextuple whammy! You know what that means? You get another list! What all of these exams have in common:
1. There is a text book available at my local library.
2. There is a free practice Peterson's test.
3. There is a study guide at free-clep-prep
4. It is one of the exams specifically stated as being accepted for credit at University of Wyoming.
5. It fulfills a Major requirement for my BA in Social Sciences.
6. The subject is awesome, and I can't wait to start studying.
BOOM! There can be no doubt that these are the exams for me to punch out in the month of October. Just wait till I can impress my friends with my extensive knowledge of world history

I thought both Western Civ exams were pretty easy. I took it cold, but I was in the military at that time so there would not have been any financial penalty for being overconfident.

Here is a free resource that may be of interest to you. I watched a lot of the Annenberg Media videos when I was CLEPping.
Resource: The Western Tradition
I kind of enjoyed them, but then I enjoy history.

Sociology-75
Only four points less than mine. If I sneezed once, our scores would have been the same.
Psychology-73
Only one point less than mine. If I ate one less carrot in my life, you would have had a higher score than me.
Information Systems-69
Same score, what the heck?!
Human Growth & Development-72
Blew me out of the water. If we combine our scores on these exams, you win by five points. I must concede that the title belongs to you
