Have to take three CLEP exams within 10 days. I'm overwhelmed!
#1
I'm supposed to be graduating next month but of course I put off taking three CLEP exams until the very last month. I need 6 humanities credits and 3 social science credits. Here is my school's CLEP policy which shows which exams fulfill which type of credit.
http://greatbay.edu/sites/default/files/...Policy.pdf

My original plan was to take Analyzing Lit (humanities), US History I (social science), and Humanities (self-explanatory). I took the official CLEP practice exam for analyzing lit and scored quite well with no prep. I enjoy history but the practice exam was daunting. I tried my hand at sociology and managed to pass by a point on the practice exam without prep.

I thought I'd spend a little bit of time brushing up for Analyzing Lit, put a few more hours into sociology, then devote the rest of my time towards humanities which I'd probably score 10% on right now. But it turns out that my school is out of essays for Analyzing Lit. and considering the time it takes to mail out for new ones, and the time to score the essay, I would not have the credits in time for graduation. Which really sucks because I was counting that as my easy pass.

I have so much other academic stuff going on right now but my choices led me here. I will stick with sociology, but everything else is subject to change. I'm basically just going through practice exams and seeing what I know the most of already. My historical knowledge is weak in relation to the difficulty of these tests. I also hate rote memorization and I have not been required to do it for so long. I don't even know where to start in preparing for these tests. I bought an instacert membership for 20 bucks which I'm beginning to regret. My school is letting me borrow an REA guide for humanities.
