    Default Human Growth and Development

    I have searched the forum about this test. I am currently using IC, REA, and Petersons site. I have found that the Petersons site and the REA book practice tests seem completely different. The Petersons test seem easier and from what I have read in the past, normally the Petersons tests are more difficult. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, is the test pretty straight forward or is there a lot of situational questions?

    Thanks for the help!

    What you have Right now is Suffient resources to make pass HGD, I used IC, REA and petersen.
    I would not say REA and Peterson Exams are different, I would say each have addition information which could help you boost your score.

    I used all three resourse in about a week and half and I think scored 63 or so points, IF I studied longer I could have even done better, but all I need was a 50 to pass.

    All the best

    This test, as with a lot of other Psych exams, is really not that straightforward. Definitely know IC inside out, take Peterson's and the CLEP practice exam. The questions can be fairly tricky, so you will need to read them carefully. This was my first CLEP, and I studied pretty hard for it using mainly IC and did fine, but I found that a big help for me was to do as many practice exams as possible to prepare for the format and possible pitfalls of the actual exam.

    I though Human Growth and Developement was easy but then again I had gone over bits and pieces of it during nursing school. I only used IC and got 70. But I always study each section till i get a 95% move on to the next section and so on.
