What science CLEP should i take??(READ THIS!)
#1
i just took the biology CLEP (on other "friends" advice, i might add), and failed miserably. This was probably due to my over-confidence, which resulted in a lack of proper study. Anyways, now I find myself in a position where I have to take another science CLEP within the month but it cannot be a bio one. SO.....does anyone have any advice they can share with me?

Natural Science it is half bio so if you study the other sciences you should be able to do it. The REA book is great for this one.

yes, it has to be a CLEP. Thanx for the advice. Just to be clear, if I take Natural Sciences, will my minimal studying of Biology be a total waste, or does Natural Science cover some Biology?

As Linda said, half of Natural Science is Biology...

I too failed miserably on CLEP Biology however, I do have the option of switching to DSST to meet my science requirements. I took Here's to Your Health - piece of cake compared to Bio - and am now trying to decide on Astronomy or Environment and Humanities, both DSST.

I opted to stay away from Natural Sciences because it is said to be very broad and considering how I did on Biology....not a chance I will torture myself like that again.
