US History II question - ssacong - 04-04-2008

HI. I have a couple of questions related to US History II and in general

1. I don't intend to get near perfect score on it, all I need is minimum of 50 to pass and get a credit for my history class. How should I study?

2. Say if i fail my exam, how long do I have to wait to take it again? (like for GRE you can take a test only once a month and 5 times a year)

This is my first time to prepare for CLEP test. I wish I have known it earlier. I am graduating this summer, and I am already going to take 2 classes in the summer and trying at least not to take a history class. any advice, comment are welcome. Thanks.

1. I'm a newbie myself.....You should first start off by doing a search on this forum for the Clep History II Exam. Here is a helpful link:
http://www.instantcertonline.com/forums/specific-exam-feedback-only/1566-us-history-ii-1865-present-clep.html

The above link should be more than enough to guide you in the right direction. I'm currently studying for the DSST Civial War & Reconstructon exam, but paln on taking the CLEP History II exam next. Searching this site gave me more than enough resources.

2. It's my understanding that if you fail an exam, you have to wait 6 months before you go for a retake.

Hi there. I just took (and passed) the US History 2 exam a couple of weeks ago. I will try to answer your questions here.

1) InstantCert will get you throught US History 2. You will not get a perfect score, but you can get a passing score using just the IC flashcards.

2) If you fail the exam, you have to wait six months before you can take the same title again.
