Hi
I am taking clep natural science end of this month. I recently passed biology. I do not have any reference book for NS. Since this test is 50% bio and 50 others can i just study from free clep prep and give this exam?
Any suggestions please?

I'm not sure if you were talking to me or Clepclep, but here is what I used to study for biology. Just keep in mind that because something works for one person that doesn't mean it will work for everyone.
My resources were:
IC Flashcards - ALL 878 of them
REA Biology - very helpful; tests are very good indicators; but it does not go quite as deep as you might need if you haven't touched biology in a long time
Biology Smart by Deborah Guest - very easy to read with questions and diagrams. I got it for $.01 + shipping on amazon.com
Standard Deviants video - seems very silly, but is helpful for some hard concepts. I got them from the library.
Sparknotes Biology Study Guides - SparkNotes - I read a few of these before I took my test
Rader's BIOLOGY 4 KIDS.COM - This was a good resource as well
All 3 Petersons practice tests - these are harder than the test, but great for review.
Also, check out the Khan Academy videos and you should definitely read the Specific Exam Feedback if you are a paying member.
P.S. Just a note that when I took biology I had just finished a highschool, college prep biology course a few months earlier.
HTH!

I listed the resources I used here ---> http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...post136709 Definitely get the REA guide and the Official CLEP Study Guide if possible; they will help you to measure how ready you are for the CLEP. Since you've already passed Biology, you will already have learned 50% of what will be on this test, so you may only need to learn one other area (i.e. chemistry) in order to pass. Good luck on your CLEP!

Hi Nimi,
Lady Grace gave you some great resources. Be sure to check out her link. I second what she said about REA and the Official CLEP Study Guide. I would also suggest the Rader's websites. Rader's COSMOS4KIDS.COM They have several different sites that cover different topics (like astronomy, physics, geography, etc). Since you've passed biology you have a good start.
Good luck!
