Over-studying?
#12
anar579 Wrote:Great suggestion Sammy. I find that taking the practice exams helps me gauge if I know enough to get the score I want/need. It's a helpful way to avoid that over-studying, or even inadequate studying. Sometimes I find myself going over something I already know, but that I'm not sure I know... does that make sense? When I take a mock exam, and apply my knowledge, I'm able to tell that I truly have learned something. And going over those wrong answers is sooo helpful. When you get an answer wrong, and then have that "Oh, I get it!" moment when you see the correct answer, really makes it stick.

OK, I'll stop rambling now. Smile
ana and sammy are right on. i forgot to mention taking the practice tests. they are a good indicator to know if you are ready. you don't need to come close to getting 100%. i think i've read on this site that 50% should give you a pass. that would be a little close for me because i don't like to be sweating it out when i take the real clep exam and wondering if i passed when i am finishing up. can anyone post what they think would be a good score to get on the practice tests, i'm not sure if the 50% is correct. :confused:
