Principles of Management CLEP

[kianeal]

Hey folks,

I registered with Peterson's yesterday for the Principles of Management CLEP and answered 83 of 100 questions correctly on Section 2, though I didn't fare as well on Section 1. Nonetheless, I'm feeling much better about taking the actual exam this Wednesday. I'll continue testing myself daily until show time and will keep you posted on the outcome. :o

My sincere thanks to all of you for encouraging me.

Awesome!!! If the scoring guide in my study guide is correct, a raw score of 83 will equate to roughly a scaled score of 70!! Don't be surprised if you score yet higher on the third practice exam!!! That's pretty typical, that is, as we learn from our mistakes on these we don't tend to make as many of the same mistakes on subsequent practice tests! I know you're going to score in the 70s on the real test Wednesday if you keep reviewing the material!!!

PS Review quickly right before the exam too, so the material is fresh in your mind!

Hi, Ronny:

I took the third test as soon as I woke up this morning and scored only a 75 - bummer. I'm not deterred though. Instead, I'm reviewing the incorrect answers and creating a study sheet from them. My plan is to take two practice exams every day until Tuesday, and then one final on Wednesday afternoon just before I go in for the actual exam.

Do you know if I'll need to re-register and pay the $20 fee each time or do I have the ability to reset the practice exams for which I've already paid?

I pray you're having a fantastic Sunday!

You're going to be surprised at how well you do on the real thing! Once you get rolling its hard to stop.

Thank you for the well wishes, I appreciate the sentiment! I spent the day at work, like usual. :o

I just logged in to my Peterson's account to see if I could retake the exam with a fresh start and I don't see a way to reset the exams. Instead of start it just says "Review completed section for the link to the exam. You know which questions you got wrong and have the detailed answers explaining them. Maybe focus on those problems and reviewing until the real test? There is value in reviewing past exams too,kind of like reviewing the IC flashcards, you're right though, it would be better to have a clean slate.

If you paid, they will give you a clean slate, you just have to call. I couldn't get them to do it for me, but I was using a code :eek:
PS Your totally ready anyway.

Thanks, Jennifer! I called customer service to have the questions reset but was told no, despite the fact that I paid for the exams. Nonetheless, I purchased a new set and re-took the tests, in addition to having reviewed the questions I missed. So far, my scores have been 75, 93, 92 and 80. I will complete the Comex 100 question exam in a few, then one more Peterson's just before leaving for the exam at 1:00 P.M. EST today.

Here's praying for at least a 65, as that's the lowest my school will accept for this exam. :o

I'll keep you posted!

Thanks for the support, Jeff! I'll keep you posted - today's D-Day... :eek:

[kianeal]

I passed the Principles of Management CLEP with a 65 (school requires a 56) today!

My thanks to God and to all of you who freely offered your encouragement, counsel and support.

Here's to graduation at summer's end!

Kia, Way to go!!! I'm happy for you that you'll be graduating so soon! God speed to you in your new career and all your future ambitions!
