Thanks for the help all!

Prioko: I am going to the University of San Francisco. Finished all my classes, just need to fill this gap.

Aaron1mix,

I checked your school's catalog, and unfortunately, it looks like the only thing I could find is what you already know; the CLEP Humanities exam seems to be your only bet.

Some students on here are so used to dealing with people from certain schools that they forget to ask what school it is you are attending. That is why I asked.

Now, it wouldn't hurt to call your school up and ask what their policy on ACE or military friendly credit is, but it seems your school is specific on the credit they accept. According to the catalog they don't seem to accept DSST exams (which is not uncommon by the way).

Don't fret, just give the exam one more try. I passed about 20 of these exams, and what I can tell you is that multiple choice is your best friend. The exam GIVES you the right answer, you just have to play "Who wants to be a Millionaire" with the questions. What do I mean? Well, it's nearly impossible to memorize all the info that will be on the exam, it covers several subjects (I would wager about 4 courses worth) of info. You have to focus your study on general concepts, terms and such. You also need to learn some specific works of art, but if you can get your choices down to 2 per question (my "millionaire reference), you have yourself a 50/50 and it will be easier to get the answer. It's not just about what the answer is, but what it is NOT.

So although I didn't take your specific exam, I do know generally how these exams work. Try another practice exam. Take your time with the questions. Try to find out which choices they are NOT. Also, after you are done with the practice exams, look at your incorrect answer choices, do a quick wiki and find out what the "right" question would have been for that wrong answer choice. You get what I mean, by reviewing your wrong answers, you might accidentally pull out an exam question for next week.

Good luck, if you don't pass (no such thing as "failing" a CLEP), just brush your shoulders off and get those last two classes done. You should be proud on how far you have come.
