English Comp w/essay score - NESTO - 02-06-2009
I was wondering how they send you the score. Do they mail it to you, or do they just mail it to your "receiving institution" without sending it to you directly? According to the College Board my score will be mailed February 27th. http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/CLEP_OSN_Dates.pdf
I took this test last night with the essay portion and I completely drew a blank for the essay question. I think I did fairly well on the multiple choice portion but I stared at the essay prompt for what seemed like an eternity before I typed a bunch of garbage on the screen. Hopefully i did well on the first part of the test because I will not be surprised if they give me a really low score on the essay.
If you are studying for Comp, Peterson's is invaluable for the multiple choice. However, if you are like me, you will have to really manage your time on the essay to do well.
If I pass this one it will be an absolute miracle!!

They mail a copy to you at the same time they mail one to your school. Take heart, I think many people flub the essay, but if you do well enough on the MC section, it's enough to pass. Don't call it over until you get the score report - if you did well on the MC section, odds are high that you passed.

I received mine form a few weeks after I took the test. It took a little bit longer because I took it right before the holiday period in December 2008. They will send you an official transcript(unofficial once you open it) form with your score and it states the method you used to take the exam. I remember taking a couple of cleps before electronic was so widespread and the waiting never gets better.
Hope you did very well.
