I have taken 17 CLEPS/DANTES from December 2008 to April 2009 which is shocking to me to even be able to write here.
I am at 16 pass and 1 fail overall and I am 13 pass and 0 fail using IC only. And believe me, if you would have said I would take 17 cleps in December I would have said "No Chance". However YES YOu Can.
Go with what you know. If you have a subject that you have experience in your study time will be decreased. That is the point of CLEP/DSST anyways right.
Also, Group them together. If you take Modern Middle East, than Intro to World Religions will have some good cards to study in Islam and will provide extra info. So, if you are studying for one test check a couple of other sets of cards to see if they have overlap. Educational Psychology and Developmental Psych or Intro to Psych should be studied together and if possible taken on the same day because the info will be fresher. I wish I did that because it would have saved me study time.
Go after your goal specifically and if you fail have a backup plan. I failed chemistry. However, I needed chemistry pretty badly so I had to look at my other options at that point. Have secondary tests available if you do fail one. You probably won't fail Chemistry is one of the harder ones and IC doesnt even cover it, Also others on this forum have passed chemistry fine.
IC is usually enough to pass. Used petersons to help with biology but I have used IC only 11 tests with passes every time. Make sure to study the explanations. Knowing the answer doesnt mean knowing what it means. On any test you can rule some answers out such as knowing Abraham Lincoln was a president in the 1860's means he could not possibly have been president during the great depression!
Use other materials if you need to. For college math I got a tutor at yourteacher because the cards showed me I was going to need a tutor. I got a supplemental english book for English Comp, and Technical Writing isnt covered by IC so I bought Finish College Fast's guide. Use the other materials available in the forum.
Most importantly search this forum and see what tests overlap and see if they are on your schedule. i have hjad great success with InstantCert and it has helped me leverage my in seat credits, move up my degree completion time and possibly jump start my career, and thats a pretty good day at the race tracks.
