    Default Intro to Sociology Clep

    Any suggestions on a ways to pass this. I am new to the Clep game. I just passed the Computer and Informations systems one with a 57. I studied on this website for about 5 hours or so. I also took a practice test a few times i found on some website I can't find my way back to. So I'm looking for any advice.

    I need to Clep the following classes to finish my degree at Penn State. Any suggestion on an order to take them or thoughts on any of the individual ones would be helpful?
    • Micro economics
    • Computer Information Systems (Done)
    • Intro to management principles
    • Intro to marketing
    • Intro to Sociology

    Thumbs up My 2 Cents!

    In my opinion I would take these in the following order:

    (1) Introductory Sociology

    (2) Principles of Marketing

    (3) Principles of Management

    (4) Principles of Microeconomics
    ---------------------------------------

    Sociology and Marketing are both really easy exams. Studying the IC flashcards will be enough to pass. Management is also doable.

    I've listed in the Specific Exam Feed back section what materials I used to pass the top 3 exams. I have not taken Microeconomics yet.

    Hope this info helps.

    Good luck to you in your educational pursuits. Peace be unto you always.

    From a loyal degree seeker,

    Marshall

    Marshall's advise is sound and I completely agree. Sociology, marketing, and mgmt are the easiest tests there are. You'll do great on those choices. I'll let you know how microeconomics goes after I take it on Thursday!
