Peterson scores comapres to CLEP scores - Lolitah030 - 07-26-2010

I'm scheduled to take my Psychology CLEP tomorrow. I studied using IC and Peterson's for about a month. I also did some quizzes out of the Princeton Review AP Psychology book. My Peterson's scores were 54%, 62%, 68%.

My question is for those who have used Peterson's tests, how closely did the scores you got on it predict how well you did on the actual Psychology CLEP. I haven't had any previous psychology classes.

welcome to the forum! yes, i think the scores you get on the peterson's are a pretty good indicator of what you might get on the real test-- at least that was my experience-- i took the peterson's for human growth dev and educational psych and the scores were very close to my scores on the real one. but I can only speak for those two tests-- I have seen some threads where people did well on the peterson's and their real test score did not reflect that. Hopefully some people who have taken intro to psych will chime in on this.
