How To Appeal? - gab1girl - 01-30-2013
I just took the English Lit. CLEP today and got a 49. Does anyone know if I could appeal to have the credit granted?

Unless there was a problem with the testing center (computer broke, fire, etc.), which even then is extremely difficult, there are no appeals accepted. You have to score a 50 or above or you don't pass. I know it's frustrating to be so tantalizingly close and not pass, but they are firm on that rule. Put it behind you and reschedule the test for later (I think it's six months you have to wait) and move on to the next exam or course you need in the meantime.

Remember that CLEP doesn't grant credit, your college does. So if you want to appeal your score with The College Board, that's one process- if you want to as your college to accept a score of 49 for credit, that's something else. What is it about the exam that you would be appealing?
