Hello everyone
I have just the first Peterson's Biology CLEP practice test and I scored a 57. I thought I was doing good because I have averaged 75% on the REA tests.
Am I doomed? Is it difficult to score high on the Peterson's test?
I feel so lame!

I have taken the Peterson's tests for each of the three CLEP exams I've done and have found the Peterson's tests to be harder than the actual CLEPs in general. The Peterson's are good for a general gauge of readiness but their real worth is in the test simulation and reviewing of material as you go through the questions post test.
