I'm new to the world of Dantes and Clep - trying to finish my BSN degree w/Regis University and some of the other nurses had used the College Network for some of the general ed requirements. So, I've paid a large sum of money for these two study guides, am completely overwhelmed and have now found the instantcert academy. Has anyone taken the religion and/or ethics exam - how was it, any hints and will I be ok if I just use the instantcert study guide? Helpppp.

I talk to people all the time who have never heard of CLEP, and they tell me, "Wow, why didn't anyone tell me about this while I was in college? I could have saved so much time and money!"

AP Exams in high schools have grown exponentially in the last ten years, but CLEP exams have stayed pretty much the same for the last thirty years. Why is that?

The problem is, if you try to tell random people about it on the internet, they think it's too good to be true--it's just another internet gimmick.

How did YOU learn about CLEP?

My theory is, if you could mass-communicate the benefits of CLEP, it would revolutionize the college industry, as students spend time in college focusing on courses relevant to their major instead of having to waste time on all of the general ed requirements.

I need some insight to a few dantes tests if anyone can help..please!!

rise and fall of the Russian empire
alcohol and drug abuse
civil war reconstruction

What I specifically need is insight on the difficulty of these tests and which test might be the best one to start with as Iembark on switching over from clep to dantes. I don't know what to expect with dantes..which format is generally harder?

Any tips on the american government clep exam?

Anyone attempt the Principles of Statistics with Dantes? Any pointers on taking the test.

I'm a little nervous about this one. Any tips other than what's presented on the InstantCert page for the exam?

I'm going to take my test in 2 wks, anyone have study suggestions?

I am studying for the Human Growth and Development Clep. How close is it to the Instantcert study guide? I have an REA study guide that just seems like overkill. Any suggestions? This will be my 1st clep and I am nervous.

Steve- Thanks for starting this forum, this is what we all needed. This will help a lot of people out.
God bless

To any who've taken this exam, what should I be focusing on? The terms and concepts seem easy to remember, is it really focused on the science and history of Psychology, or the application of it? Plus how did you do, and how long did you study with Instacert before you took it?

Thanks in advance!
