American History 1 clep help

[studyhard]

Hi everyone!

I am taking this test on Saturday, August 1 and I have just been reading the REA book. Will this be enough to pass the clep? :confused:

Thank you!

Probably NOT. REA is a good overview but rarely provides enough detail for you to use it exclusively.

You've got a week, by all means sign up for InstantCert (if you haven't) and start doing the flashcards. They will help a lot.

Be sure you take all the practice tests in the REA book. Then read the answers and take the tests again.

Another great free resource is Sparknotes's overviews and practice tests. I'd go through all the eras up through the Civil War listed on this list:
