These tests are not as simple as oh I just need 40% of them to pass, I would be willing to bet money that a 40% on any clep exam would be a FAIL. For one these numbers are 4 or so years old. I believe another study said you need a minimum of 50% but the REA guides say 66%. Most people will cling on to the percentage that is the easiest and not the most practical. Aim high on these exams, the best exam I did was Psych and its also the only test I KNEW I passed before hitting the score report button.
Either way good luck with your remaining credits!
Thanks for posting that! I did feel a bit skeptical...is it really THAT simple? So do you think I should be aiming for at least 70%ish to pass?
My goal is to score pretty high on the CLEP since I'm a high schooler and I'm taking Psych for the first time, so I want to actually learn it and score in the 70s (if I can, of course!)
My test starts in 2 hours! I'd better get to a bit of review.
