Westerner Wrote:American Gov is harder than US History 1. But try a practice test for each, and that can help guide you. Consider what you score, and what questions you're more comfortable with.I agree with Westerner. American Government was the first CLEP I took. I enjoy government and had recently studied it in high school, so I reviewed my high school text book, and then used the IC flashcards - they were all I needed to pass the test.
On the other hand, U.S. History I is a very familiar subject. It is very broad as it covers a large time span- one important study tip is to know the timeline of events. In addition to my high school text book, I used this excellent website: HippoCampus - Homework and Study Help
