Which of the 3 Psych Cleps? - nglatz - 07-11-2009

Hi Cleppers,

I have to choose one of the three clep exams in psychology. How would you rank them in terms of difficulty...I have no qualms about any, rather is one easier to associate with than the others...I have absolutely zero psychology background.

1. Human Growth and Development
2. Introductory Psych
3. Educ. Psych.

Any guidance would be helpful...I have two full weeks to prep and will use IC and Petersons...can use REA if you think it will help.:confused:

Thanks for any advice! This forum rocks.

I would have to say that Intro to Psych would make the most sense as a starting point. I know eduational psych would be the most difficult from what others here have said. Good luck in whatever you choose.

ditto marianne...

I took Intro and HG&D...I'd recommend Intro if you're only taking one, but both were quite easy

I agree with Joel. Both Intro to Psych and Human Growth were pretty easy. I actually took a different test for Intro to Psych (UExcel instead of CLEP), so I can't comment directly on that exam. But they were both easy. Human Growth seemed really basic to me... it is what the title says. If you pay attention to human nature at all, it would be a breeze.

Without a question, intro to psych is the easiest. Good luck! Let us know how it goes! Smile
