Abussey, Not to be too nosey, but is money an issue? If not, take the A&I test on Monday. (And, after this post, get off of the Internet and study!) Easy is relative, but it's a fairly simple exam. Over-analyzing shouldn't be too much of an issue, since, if memory serves, the answers about what an author meant in a passage were sufficiently different to make it clear which one was correct. Don't stress too much on meter, or not understanding just one concept. Play to your strengths. Come up with an approach for the exam. Decide whether you'll read the questions or the passage first. Make sure you budget your time so that you can answer all of the questions, and I think that you'll be pleased with the result. Please post tomorrow and let us know how you did. In the unlikely case that you don't pass, there are a lot of other tests that might meet your requirements. Good luck on your first exam. Clicking the submit button at the end is a bit scarey, but the instant feedback more than makes up for it.

Search the forum for my posting on this.... read the answers in the rea book. They help understand how to choose an answer.
Good luck!

I read a post that the practice exams in the CLEP Official Study Guide 2012 are identical to those in the CLEP Official Study Guide 2010, which is much less expensive. I bought the 2010 for $1.99 at Amazon, although the price has gone up to $2.01 today.

Congratulations! Was this your first CLEP? Isn't it a great feeling when you submit, and then get back the passing score?
