I just wanna hear some feedback since I am no longer member and I can't review those old feedback.
By the way, I also find that it becomes easier for me to study American Government after I Clep out Business Law. Does anyone else feel the same way?

My daughter was planning to take American Government in March because that is when the REA study guide for it is supposed to come out. The REA guides have been a real benefit to her in addition to the flashcards. I'm sorry I don't have any truly helpful information. :o

I found IC very helpful for this exam. I also used Pass your Class. I took Business Law after passing American Gov. I didn't find much overlap.
Good luck.

IC is a great resource at a mere $20 a month. I guess you would like for someone else to pay and then supply you with the info.

We used Cliffs Notes and other sourcs, several trips to the library to borrow test guides that would provide test questions and detailed explanations. I did not know of IC at the time. If I had I would have saved so much time, we could have studied in more chronological order and had the explanations IC provides.
That being said I suggest memorizing the Cliff's Notes American Government glossary and the supreme court decisions chart.
Passed:
American Gov, US History 1, US History 2, Computing, Info Systems, Humanities, Sociology, Art, Western Civ I, Western Civ II, Social Sciences and History, Civil War, Business, Vietnam, A&I Lit, Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice, American Lit, English Lit, Astronomy, Supervision, 1 FEMA, Total -79

I took American Government a couple of months ago. I found it fairly easy, but I took an American government in high school. In my state it was required for graduation. I used the Cliff Notes and it was an excellent study source. I also used the Bob Jones American Government text book, which is part of their high school curriculum. I think it was for 10th grade. My friend recently took the CLEP as well, and he said the flashcards on instantcert were extremely helpful.
