Passed Biology today. YES - clepste - 04-01-2008
Passed the first at last
after 3 weeks i passed BIOLOGY, this is my first clep and that`s a huge encourage for me to move forward. Thank you guys for the help and all feedback i got , the exam feedback section was extreme helpful cause i did not know where to start. i went through IC, peterson`s and i got some books for the library to practice exams (cracking AP Biology was great, Kaplan practice tests).
The exam was not easy, i mean i was mark all questions asks me to read a paragraph after when i done with the easier one. now i am preparing for the next one.. need your guide..
* I am thinking of schedule for the Natural science since it`s related to biology, what do you think? and how long i should study for it?
* also i don`t see any kind of credit i got in the score report and they told me that the college will decide that. how many credits will i get 3 or 6?
* i want to clep out of anatomy, neuroscience or genetics ,how to do that? i don`t see anatomy in either CLEP or DSST?

Wow, passing Biology with a 65 on your first CLEP ever is awesome. Geeeeez I wish I had any faith that I could pass a science CLEP, but I will be taking the class for this particular subject. Congratulations!

Great job! Don't forget to "brain dump" in the exam specific section. I think it's a wise move to class stack w/ Nat sci. . Again, congrats

Thank you guys, i am now preparing for Natural Science and i will give it a week for practice.
how to calculate having both NS and biology credits is it 6+6 or because NS already 50% biology?

Excelsior will give you 6+6 for Biology + NS. If you're good with physical science, you can most likely sit for the NS exam the next day, just after a few hours of brushing up.
Congrats for passing Biology, I remember it took me a long time to build momentum on this one, it was a pain at times, but it was well worth the effort the 12 credits earned in return.
