Both you and iwannapass bring good points, allow me to clarify. The posts that I'm referring to start like this... "I'm taking XXXX test, does anyone have any pointers/advice/give me answers on the test" ect ect.
When one reads these posts, it is clear that little to no effort went into researching whether there was existing information available on the forum. It just seems that some wish to start threads just for the sake of posting. In turn, it waters down the forum with pep talks verses "meat and potato" information people need to prepare for/pass tests.
Just my 2 cents worth anyway. I'm off to post a new thread myself now, I think I'll ask all what the easiest/hardest CLEP test is... haven't seen that one in a while.
