At what score on the Peterson's exam do you have enough confidence in your knowledge that you feel ready for the real thing?

I depends on the exam usually -- some Peterson's practice tests are significantly more difficult than the real exam for some subjects, but usually a score ranging from 60%-70% is a very comfortable range for passing the real exam.
CLEPs:
Biology: 64 | College Algebra: 60 | A&IL: 74 | Natural Sciences: 62 | College Comp: 62 | Intro Psychology: 73 | Intro Sociology: 67 | History of the U.S. I: 73 | History of the U.S. II: 65 | Principles of Marketing: 66 | Social Sciences & History: 68 | Humanities: 58

DSSTs:
Environment & Humanity: 59 | Technical Writing: 66 | Public Speaking: 67/Pass | Astronomy: 72

Other Courses:
Intro to Stats ALEKS: 70 | 24 FEMAs (including PDS) | Intro to News Reporting TECEP: Pass | Interpersonal Communication ECE: A | News Writing @ TESC: A | TESC Leadership Communication: A | TESC Mass Communication I: A | TESC Capstone: A | Marketing Communications TECEP: Pass | Argumentation & Debate @ LSU: A | Public Relations Thought & Practice TECEP: Pass

120/120 - DONE!!!

For me, 60%-70%, but sometimes, depending on the test and my scores on other PTs, I would test with around 50%.

If I even bother with those test I usually score between 45% -60%. I wouldn't take them too seriously only as another source to study.

In the specific case of CLEP College Mathematics, don't pay any attention to the Peterson's score. You should never take any of the Peterson's tests for College Mathematics because they aren't representative of the actual CLEP test.
63 CLEP Sociology
75 CLEP U.S. History II
63 CLEP College Algebra
70 CLEP Analyzing and Interpreting Literature
68 DSST Technical Writing
72 CLEP U.S. History I
77 CLEP College Mathematics
470 DSST Statistics
53 CLEP College Composition
73 CLEP Biology
54 CLEP Chemistry
77 CLEP Information Systems and Computer Applications
