Hi, I am taking in just a few minutes principles of marketing and intro to computers CLEP's. I have to pass them to keep my scholarship. I studied IC, plus I studied the CLEP college board study guide (very helpfu). Anyways, I am ok with computers, and it is multiple choice, is it possible to eliminate answers on the test, or are they made to be tricky? I am more worried about marketing..I am not to good with real world situations. I need to get a 52 on computer applications, and a 50 on marketing. Any advice? Thanks!

Once you understand the computer and how it works, the internet...regarding address......you should be fine.
SPEND ANY EXTRA TIME YOU HAVE ON MARKETING.........that is where you will find the tricky questions..
GOOD LUCK!!!

Well....passed intro to computers with a 57, the required score is a 52. Next up is principles of marketing! Wish me luck! The marketing test is situational type questions right?

How do you do it...........control the nerves on/during testing to be able to post feedbacks/comments.

I just got with principles of marketing...and I got a 50...school wants a 50. Marketing was really hard for me for some reason. it might have been becase everything was in situations...and the questions were tricky. I finished with 1 minute to spare...it was odd because I fellt like I was going to fail it all along...A good 20% of the test I had to guess on (partly because I marked so many questions...barely had enough time to finishit...lol). Don't like me discorage anyone from the marketing clep...just be prepared for what are about to get into (some tricky questions..and all situational qestions).

You achieved your goal today!!!!!!
Did you channel that 50.........this was the only exam that left me with a feeling of disappointment, because my knowledge base is in Business......my score was also 50

How do you do it...........control the nerves on/during testing to be able to post feedbacks/comments. Well...I was nervous leading up to testing, but when I got to the testing center...I just said..ok...I studied..and I am going to do the best that I can do...after if I fail..well...atleast I can walk out of there knowing that I put alot of effort into it..and as far as nerves and posting feedback...when I did the test....I did it like a game...I said...how many questions can I get right...if you make it a game (where you see how many questions who can get right), I think you will be less nervous because you will be distracted (I STILL treated the test very seriously - had to pass to get my $5000 scholarship...I just controlled my thoughts). I was able to post feedback after each test because...its over...what else can be done? And as far as before the test....I just treated it like a normal day...I relaxed before the test....but I was still nervous...I just didn't show it!
