I have not taken any clep or dantes test yet, and it's come down to the end of me needing to take 3. Please provide any suggestions/material info. on how I should complete these asap. How much time should I allow with no knowledge of the courses and in being new to taking test, especially since I hear these are the hardest ones. HELP!!!
I've taken and passed all three. I suggest your first step is to join IC and review the specific feedback for each of these exams. It's $20 monthly and the best $20 you'll ever invest. Once you have reviewed postings, you should have a good idea of what you'll need to focus on in terms of study resources. Unless these areas are your background, you will need to dedicate time for study and review. These are upper level credits and I would caution you not to underestimate them, especially given your statement that testing is new to you. Everyone is different and I'm sure some waltzed through these exams. For me, it took considerable effort, study and review.
For the Rise & Fall of SU, The Soviet Colossus - Michael Kort- is, in my opinion, a must read.
Best of luck to you.
