Are you saying you can access the Peterson's testing page, but can't take the tests, or are you saying you can't even access the testing page?

When I click on "Start Now" (I think) it then prompts for UserId/passwd

Well, that's just the Peterson's log-in (it has nothing to do with the library.) It's free to register.

Well, dang. I never thought it may be free. I thought P was a cost service only.

Peterson's usually does charge for its exams...but if you first go through the Indiana library (or other similar link), you can take the exams free. Just make sure you go through one of those links, instead of trying to access exams from Petersons.com.

Thank you for the links to the free tests. I have taken two so far. On the first one I scored a 53. On the second one a 54.

I am trying to clep Principles of Management.

I have to get a 50 to pass. I just need a pass, that is it.

I would like to ask some advice. If I am scoring around 53 on these practice tests, is this an indication that I will pass the real CLEP or do I need to keep studying?

I would really like to get this test out of the way, however, I do want to be sure that I am properly prepared, as I can't afford to fail it.

How do you guys determine based on these practice tests, what you will score on the real test?

What are your thoughts, based on my scores on the practice exams, as to what I might score on the real test?

I think in general Peterson's are a good indication of what you'd score on the real test. But I would do some more study, and maybe try to hit around 60 on Peterson's before you take the real thing...

Hi Journey21!

Are you getting 53 questions correct out of how many? Or are you getting 53% correct?

Generally, it is advised that you get your % correct to be at least 50-60%.

Best wishes on your exams!

Practice tests are invaluable. I have passed a couple of clep tests just by taking a couple practice tests!
