Hi pepitico! Welcome to InstantCert!
I took this test and passed, last week. I know everyone studies and learns differently, but here is what I put on the specific exam feedback...
"Whew...so happy to be done with this test!!! After studying for 2 1/2 weeks (minus weekends), I passed today with a 68 (which caught me by surprise). Thank you, Lord!
My studies included:
Instant Cert Flash Cards-I only went through them once...I felt like I needed to "see" the things I was learning. (Just talking about the parts of the brain, etc., didn't do it for me!)
Peterson's Practice Tests (All 3)-Going over the wrong answers, always helps me! (BTW, I scored 48%, 54%, & 66% respectively...)
The Official CLEP Study Guide-59% (I was thankful that my test wasn't worded like this one!)
Self-Study-Researching terms and people, finding pics of the brain, reading through the Specific Exam Feedback, making notes, online practice quizzes, mnemonics, etc.
Learner.org Brain Videos-Someone suggested these on the forum...they helped me, though I, personally, don't agree with the worldview it teaches. (I look at the world through a Biblical perspective...)
There weren't as many "big names," as I expected...though, Piaget and Freud were on there. The test is not easy, but not impossible...it's "middle of the road." Learn what the forum suggests and you will be good to go! (I studied very, very broad.)
I felt pretty prepared going into the test (just striving for a pass). At the end of it, I thought I had passed with a score of 55 or so. There were many questions I knew, without hesitating, but there were some I had to guess. I was just hoping that the ones I knew out-weighed the ones I didn't! I was shocked with a 68!
The exam feedback is really great. Thanks for everyone's advice!
Praising the Lord for seeing me through...whether pass or fail, I am thankful for Him always being there."
