I just failed but I wanna take another....

[cookderosa]

I passed the Management and Marketing CLEPs with InstantCert. I am grateful for that. I took the Business Law CLEP and failed badly....36.... I don't know what happened but it was like I wasn't focused...The one thing I did differently from the other test was eat like 20 minutes before....:confused: Maybe I shouldn't have eaten immediately before a test...Does anyone know?

Now I am thinking American Literature or British Literature CLEP...I have the option of taking the CLEP test or going to class every Saturday morning for the American Literature class....All I need is just a 50 for a "Passed" on my transcript...Any advice for me getting back on track?

Did you try all three of them all on the same day? That might have been the problem. I did 3 in one day several months back- but only 1 was new material to me, 1 was a review + a little new info, and the last was a gimmie of very comfy territory. Even still, my brain was FRIED afterward.
My failed test was Civil War earlier this summer. It took me 2 "passes" after that to feel like I was back to my old self. I really felt VERY nervous both times- which I normally don't feel much more than mild anxiousness.
I doubt eating caused your failure, however, I would avoid it next time- if only for the psychological effect!!
