:confused: I plan on taking Sociology and Analyzing and Interpreting Literature CLEPs on Tuesday. I would love to take the Principles of Statistics DSST on Wednesday morning followed by Technical Writing DSST in the afternoon. I have already taken World Religions DSST, English Comp w/Essay CLEP, and Astronomy DSST this week so far. I tend to overstudy at times but I really, really need to get these done by these dates. Any study tips or study material I should look into besides InstantCert? Thanks!

You'll have to be strong in Statistics...the others you can definately navigate through.
I did the 6 credit CLEP Social Sciences & History cold...no study...very doable
I did the 6 credit A & I Literature after reviewing literary devices for about a half hour. (There is not much else you can do to study for it.)...again doable
From reading about the Technical Writing it seems that study for that can be accomplished in less than a few hours...which leaves Statistics....if you put all of your energy into that and can master it in less than 5 days, then my hat is off to you.
If you are just needing the quick credits (18) and have some flexibility...I'd do the 6 credit CLEP Humanities along with the A & I Literature and Social Sciences and History.
I needed to boost my GPA by getting rid of old D's and did those three 6 credit CLEP's in a two day span with little study. Statistics on the other hand took a better part of a month.
What convinced me that I could handle the 6 credit CLEP's with little study, was going through the practice tests in the Official CLEP Study Guide (the big blue book...around $20-25) ...the same book also convinced me that I better figure out another way to get Algebra credit.
Good luck!!!
