It is mostly a reading comprehension exam with some literature terms thrown in. The most helpful source I used was Analyzing and Interpreting Literature CLEP Study Guide - Free-Clep-Prep.com. It has a couple of websites listed to study with- I think one has some poems, etc. to practice your reading comprehension on. Also, this website (Literature*|*Glossary of Poetic Terms) has a bunch on literature terms, and it was exactly what I needed for this test. I just read through all of the terms and wrote them down to help with memorization. That's about all you need! I also used the CLEP Official Study Guide..highly recommended because it's always a good indicator of the real test, and it gave me a better idea of the format of the actual test. I scored a 73 on it using those resources.
Hope that helps! May the Lord guide your journey.

One more thought...I believe that the CLEP Principles of Management (3 cr.) and DSST Principles of Supervision (3 cr.) are very similar. I am working towards both of these right now. But if you can study for and pass one, you will just need a little targeted study to pass the other. I mostly using IC flashcards and Free CLEP Prep for these two. But if all you need is just 6 credits in something, I personally think your best option is the Analyzing and Interpreting Lit. Just my two cents .
