My ECEs were fun to study and somewhat more difficult than your typical multiple choice test. I liked them.

I liked studying for the Soc CLEP, but the test itself was disappointingly easy.

The worst test I took was the Information Systems and Computer Applications CLEP, which was partly my fault for not studying. I didn't understand what about 90% of the questions were asking and had to rely completely on test taking skills to get me through it. The major problem that I had with this test is that it, unlike all of my other exams, was simply a memorization and recognition test. You either knew it or you didn't. Even if I knew the material, I would have been bored out of my mind, since there was nothing needing much thought.

Favorite? Humanities- studied like a fiend for a couple of months...took the test and realized I could have passed it based on 50 years of eclectic reading and hobbies.
Hated? Sociology...bor-ing!

Might I add. I'm sure I would have had a much better experience with the Psychology exam had I found a more interesting book to study from :ack: That book was so bad, just a few months later, I have already forgotten about half of the material. I keep trying to force myself to recall, and I may even have to study another Psychology 101 book just to keep it in my stinkin' head!

There are so many Psychology books that I came to feel there's no reason to bother with one that's boring, talks down to the student, or lacks a great website with powerpoints and quizzes.
