I know this is going to sound obsessive, but I have a Marketing CLEP tomorrow that I must pass in order to graduate in May from my college. My school requires a score of 65 to pass this exam. I am currently going through the flash cards for the third time and I'm getting 85-95% of them correct. I took the CLEP practice exam yesterday and I scored an 87. Does this mean I shouldn't have trouble getting a 65 on my test tomorrow?

I took the marketing clep last Thursday. I didn't think it was that difficult. I was scoring a little higher than you were, but I still think you'd be fine. Make sure that you've reviewed all the cards and I bet you do fine.
Keep us posted on how you do. Good luck.

If your school requires a 65, I think I'd be hitting the cards some more. I was at almost 100% on all the cards and I pulled a 71. Instantcert was all I used. I did have 1 question on Robinson Act and the Sherman Anti-trust Act that weren't on instantcert, but I'd had them in other classes so was familiar with them.
Hope that helps. Good luck to you!

I have used a textbook student companion site as well as IC. On the companion site I viewed the powerpoints, looked at the vocabulary flashcards, and took practice quizzes for every chapter. I just took two more IC sections a few moments ago and I scored 100% on one and 94% on the other. I think I will be alright... There is just so much pressure!

I know it's going to be hard, but try to relax. I was extremely anxious on my way to the testing center, but I was pleasantly surprised by the test. I think it was probably around question 10 or 15 that I began to realize I could breath. Just take one question at a time and you'll do great!

I was getting 70 - 79 on the flashcards and got a 76 on the CLEP. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the responses, everybody. I got a 77 on the exam! I can graduate in May! I thought the exam was surprisingly easy. I could have studied a whole lot less than I did, but given the importance of passing I don't feel like I wasted a minute of my time.
