What other types of charts and graphs did you have to interpret? I will take the test on Thursday; I've been reviewing/studying almost daily for three weeks. I have a deadline so I have no choice but to take it on Thursday, ready or not.

There were questions about a graph that showed when mass extinctions of species occurred.
Also, there were questions about a bag of water and solute that was placed in a beaker of water and solute.
Unfortunately, I am drawing a blank about the others. When I saw the graphs, I passed over and then answered them once I had gone through the test once. Then I went back to those questions when I felt more relaxed about getting through the bulk of the test. When I read the questions, they were not that hard, just wordy. I had to carefully read all of the explanations and then usually the right one (or the one that I thought was right) became more apparent.
This is the stategy of how I make the most of my test-taking. Take some time and look it over.
When I used the Comex book to study for Math there were guidelines on how to answer CLEP questions. I have used the guidelines on all of my multiple choice tests.
1.If you know the correct answer, answer and do not give it a check mark.
2.If you are deciding between two answers, answer it and give it a check mark.
3.If you are deciding between 3 answers, check mark it and do not answer it.
4.If you are clueless, do not give it a check mark or answer it.
Then once you have gone through the test in this manner, review your answers in this way:
5.Go to the unanswered questions with checkmarks and answer those and uncheck them.
6.Then go to the unanswered, unchecked questions and answer those and uncheck them.
7.At this point all questions should be answered and you are left with the checkmarked questions that were between 2 answers. Now go back and look at them to see if you are satified with the choice that you made. I rarely change my answers on those, unless as I took the test more clarity came for that answer.
The first few times that I used this system I wrote the process down on test center scrap paper so that I could refer to it.
It's worked very well for me.
Let us know how it goes . I have a feeling that you will do fine.
