I studied solely the REA review and took two practice tests. I went in with a very good grasp of the material in the REA book and was tested on a lot of material that simply wasn't included in the REA review.
So, that being said I strongly advise against using the REA book as a sole resource for this test. Supplement it. Heavily.
REA, up til now, has been awesome CLEP prep for me but sadly, this book falls well short of that standard.:toetap:
It's interesting that the book that fell far short of the standard got you a score equal to your highest. I didn't use REA for anything, but it looks like they covered enough relevant material to equip you to eliminate most of the wrong answers--even if you weren't sure you ended up with the right ones. Turns out--you did--and quite a few right answers at that. Congratulations on a great score. If nothing, I'm sure it sharpened your "process of elimination" skills!
