Has anyone used Study.com's CLEP and DSST guides?  Were they useful/relevant?  I haven't seen anyone mention these as a resource.

Thanks in advance!

I started to use one of their TECEP courses, but I felt that their coverage didn't go in depth enough.

Great question - what for the CLEP and DSST for basic level exams like the COLLEGE MATH CLEP and the DSST MATH LIBERAL ARTS. Did they cover or go in depth enough for those specific cleps do you know?

I would use Khan Academy for those - it's thorough, and it's free.  No point in paying for a course to take a CLEP/DSST.

Do you have any particular Khan courses or just search by all the topics?  And sorry for my totally incoherent post above!!  Didn't proof or read that one over so I apologize if it sounded like a 5 year old typing haha

I’ve used Study.com to prep for a UExcel and a DSST exam and on both occasions the Study.com prep was awful. You’re better off following the exam guide than wasting your money on Study.com’s “prep.”
