How does the Petersons Compare?
#1
I just took the petersons practice test for biology and was wondering how the scores compare to the real CLEP. I scored a 74% on it but I'm not sure if its a lot easier than the CLEP/

I think that the Peterson's exams are generally harder than the real thing. i would think that if you are scoring in the 70's you should be fine on the real exam. Just make sure to read over your incorrect answers and the accompanying explanations. Good luck!

If you pass a Peterson's, you will pass a CLEP. Peterson's are very close to the real thing.

I have always found the Petersons as hard or harder then the real thing. I usually feel ready to try a CLEP when I have reached at least 60% on Petersons. Good Luck on the CLEP
