I really studied my heart out for Business Law and passed but would like to strive to get a higher number on the Micro exam. Any suggestions from those who have been through a few CLEPs? What made it easy? What made it hard in terms of studying the material?Hi Swthing64-
i haven't taken very many clep tests yet, since i am just starting on this journey, but one of the few tests i have taken is microeconomics. my husband and i only studied the instantcert flashcards and googled a few things we didn't understand and we both passed (69 and 68). we did take macroeconomics first and that helped us understand some things a little quicker. if you know and understand the instantcert flashcards, you will pass. i want to add that depending on where you are enrolled, some clep tests are for a grade. at excelsior, this test is for a grade, not just pass/fail. good luck with your test a week from friday and let us know how you do.
