If that's the case, there should be more student data for those exams. The forum posts for most/all the TECEP exams is scarce/non-existent compared to CLEP, DSST, and UExcel. That is important.
Ok, so then for this exam, what exactly do people recommend to do to pass it? That information isn't out there in the open – it's in the wild. The main concern with TECEP exams is that you have to rely on traditional resources like a textbook where you may have to read chapters and chapters. I've read and personally experienced situations where you could study for credit examinations for a few hours or a few days and get a pass or even high pass on materials. Having at least a defined program where there is enough student input, practice exams, and review materials which are all condensed methods of studying is always going to be superior to reading a textbook as far as getting passable credit for an exam in the least amount of time. If there are TECEP exams like the one you mentioned that are that easy and/or structured, then there's no problem with that!
