Will I be ready for my clep exam? - JMatt502 - 06-18-2018
Hello,
About two months ago I passed my first clep exam, Intro to Psych. I prepared way more than I think I needed to and crushed the test.
Following this, I took a break to worry about finals and put my focus on other studying.
I then had this great idea that I could pass the A&I Lit clep with no studying. I'm an awful reader. Failed with a 46.
Since then, I have purchased an Instacert subscription and have thoroughly ran through about 3/4ths of the flash cards. I then got antsy on practice tests and took the three Petersons tests with scores of 60, 54, and lastly a 59. I also found some other practice test, not sure whose it was, but I think it may be an older versionof the official study guide test. Scored a 51/88. I was wondering what your alls opinion is if I were to finish studying the flash cards, review the Petersons questions I do not know the answers to, and and look through the specific feedback forum to ensure I know all concepts mentioned.
Should I then be prepared to pass the exam ?
I'm not looking to spend money and time to receive another failing score.
Thank you!

Update: Just purchased the 2018 official study guide and received a 66/98 which comes out to a 67.3%.

Why didn't you get a voucher from Modern States to take the test for free?

Based on you having already taken and passed psych, and based on those scores, I would say you're ready. Between now and the test day, probably could still keep reviewing, but you got this!
