Took my first CLEP exam yesterday...Principles of Macro Economics...failed
#1
I studied intensely for this test (nearly 3 weeks), passed all the practice tests and missed passing by 2 points. I was never discouraged though. I got the testing cobwebs out and now I'm off to study Micro Econ and expecting to score a 60 or better on the next test.

Stay encouraged everyone.

Sorry about your set back. This is one that I'm nervous about. Good luck on Micro!!!

Oh, so close! You did REALLY well for a first CLEP since you chose a hard topic. From my point of view, Micro is a bit harder. You may want to keep that in mind when you're setting up your studying/testing schedule. Good luck!

LaterBloomer I waned to start with a harder course to prove to myself that I really have the discipline to do this. I know now what areas to focus more on. Thanks for the encouragement.
