Why no multiple choice on this site?
#1
I like the instantcert product so far, but the flash reviews should be given as multiple choice. Since the CLEP and DANTES are multiple choice exams.

My spelling is awful, and something as simple as spacing registers an incorrect answer. This makes assessing your progress difficult.

Just my $.02.

I agree about the spelling.

I think they don't have multiple choice because they want you to rely on your own knowledge of the topic, instead of guessing based on the answers they've given you...it's just a better way to learn and remember what you learned....in my opinion.

The moderator has spoken!

Haha anyway. Whenever me and my brother get a question wrong based on spelling error, we go back and answer it again.

Here's a suggestion: Keep the current fill in the blank format and then offer a CLEP exam style practice test. My guess is that the difficult part would be generating relevent incorrect answers.

I'm certainly not looking to learn just a "a few simple answers" but would like to run through a decent practice test for each test a few time.

Does anyone offer this online?

Well some of the REA books have CDs that have two-three practice tests. Other than that, I don't know.

Also, there's a big, blue CLEP book which contains practice exams for many of the CLEP exams. If you search under CLEP at Amazon.com I'm sure you'll find it.
