If it's for TESU, make sure you take College Comp WITH essay. That's the only one that will count for English Comp II (if you take College Comp w/o the essay, it counts as English Comp I, and if you take College Comp Modular, with or without essay, it also only counts for English Comp I).
If you take the TECEP, it's not too bad. Definitely not hard.

Does anyone know if TESU will take the extra 3 credits from the English Comp Clep (which is 6 credits), and apply them to the Gen Ed section of the BSBA?

I think you're asking if the duplicate credit will transfer somewhere else. They answer is no, because you already have the credit elsewhere. The extra three is duplicate and does not count.

No, what I'm saying is can I kill two birds with one stone by taking that CLEP since it is worth 6 credits.
Will it fulfill both Eng Comp 2 (3 credits) AND fill a Gen Ed space with the other 3 credits. (So that I have one less class to take)

That CLEP always comes in as 3 credits of ENC-101 and 3 of ENC-102. If you already have another source of ENC-101, it will be "wasted" credits that can't be applied anywhere.

Ah!!! I see. Okay, thank you!

Yes. I don't think it's super difficult in terms of studying (I haven't taken, just from what I've read). I think it's that there is a lot of typing required - that's what seems to trip people up the most, the writing an essay in a short period of time.

I took it cold about a month ago. I got a 66, which is passing. I also consider myself really good at taking tests, and I read a lot, and I am a decent writer (I think).
That being said, I breezed through the multiple choice, but I found myself coming down to the wire on the essays. If anything, that's where I would suggest focusing your efforts: time management, brainstorming, writing, editing.
