Social Sciences and History vs Biology
#1
which one is relatively easier than the other?
I have taken a few classes in Psychology and just passed the Macro/Micro Clep exams a week and a day ago respectively...

Only high school bio experience (about 7yrs ago)
...

Any and all advice would be grateful...

The only way to change is through action and outside pressure. Put yourself in situations where you have too much at stake to waste time or resources - if you cannot afford to lose, you won’t.

I've never taken the Social Science & History CLEP, but I can imagine that there is alot of overlap with the stuff you already studied (psych).

If you needed 12 more credits then I would recommended taking the Biology CLEP. I found it pretty challenging, but I was able to take the Natural Science CLEP 3 days later with almost no additional studying. Thats 12 credits for one group of study material! (albeit a difficult one)

Sorry that's all I can recall. Kaplan's AP History book really hits on all the stuff on this test. from macro,micro, liter, history, migration patterns, Psy and socio.
