Natural Sciences CLEP

[Lemurian_Spirit]

Hi There, I used REA study materials, took the (at the time) free Education Portal course on Natural Sciences specifically for this CLEP, and worked with a tutor for one all-day (eight-hour) session. All that and I scored a 50 (the minimum passing score). Apparently, the Natural Sciences Education Portal course wasn't finished at the time, because it still lists my progress as 98% complete. If you haven't been an Education Portal member before it would cost you to take that course now, and I don't think it's worth it, but if you don't have a tutor it might be. I checked and Straighterline have no 6-credit courses, so I think you're wise to take the CLEP. Just to be clear I (barely) passed this CLEP with using the tutor as mentioned above and the following:

I also found this post to be extremely helpful with most of the exams I took: http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...gress.html

I hope this helps. I took this exam right after College Mathematics because I thought it would be the second-most difficult. It was by far my worst score of all the exams I took--but I still passed, and you can too!
