Believe me, it is intimidating. According to my Education Center, there's only a 57% pass rate of it from the students that take it here.
However, I took it today and it was EASY. I used a number of different sources for this and I have to say that instantcert was hands down the most useful. If you can drill this stuff into your head and use it with some supplementary study material (for instance, buy the CLEP Official Study Guide and Cracking the CLEP for some additional practice tests, and just take more wherever you want online, on 4exam or peterson's) and you'll breeze it, IMO. But instantcert is the base ingredient I think. And I'm not being paid to say this, seriously.
Now I feel dumb that I stressed so much about this that I bought a smartclub membership with istudysmart. If all the CLEPs are this easy then I wish I hadn't paid so much for the damn smartclub. :p
Basically, just make sure you supplement your study here through practical application (ie practice exams). Thanks for this site, Steve - let me know if I can do anything to help. And Andrea, if you have any other questions about CLEP, feel more than free to contact me.

(PS: freeuniv.com is also useful, but overloads you with links for Humanities... After you have taken a few tests and know where you're deficient, however, it's a great source!)
