principles of marketing

I have gone over the Rea one twice. What chapters should I focus on and
how hard is the test?

Thanks!

The test is pretty easy. I used the REA guide (great preparation!!) and some flashcards primarily, and below are some more sites that were helpful:

Principles of Marketing CLEP Study Guide

The Official CLEP Study Guide practice test was a very accurate representation of the actual test. This was another of the really easy CLEPs (I studied for it for 2 days), and I've heard that if you have taken one of the management CLEPs/DSSTs, you will already have a heard start on studying. Good luck and let me know if you have any more questions!

Thanks,
Also do you remember how hard the practice tests in the REA book were compared to the actual exam?

After only reading the REA once, I took the first practice test in the book and got a 60 scaled or 67%. I didn't take the other practice test(s) in the book due to the time crunch I was on (having ~2 days to prepare for the exam). On the real test, I got a 67. Despite that information, however, I felt like the first practice test in the REA guide was slightly easier than the real exam. Hope that answers your question, and let me know if you have any more!

Yea it helps. I took a practice test and I passed....not with a good score. I took the 2 one first though.
I just really need to pass the actual test. Thanks for info.

The Marketing Clep is pretty term-heavy and the REA book and PTs prepare you well for that. The REA book for this test was one of the best to come from the company
