Am I ready for the Natural Science Exam?
#1
Ok, I need a confidence booster for the CLEP exam I'm taking tomorrow. I have taken the Peterson's online practice tests (the ones through my library's website) and have scored right around 60% (also took the printable version and scored 69%). I also took a NS test from an older Official CLEP SG and scored 80%. Finally, before I started studying too intensively, i took an exam from The Princeton Review's "Cracking the CLEP" and scored 90%. Are the practice exams on from these older books easier than the real test? Has the test been made more difficult in recent years? Is Petersons ridiculously more difficult than the real exam?

When I take the peterson's tests, many of the questions I am flat out guessing. I feel really lost. Also, it seems that I score lower on each consecutive test, lol.

Am I ready?

Know your biology really well. Petersons are a good way to study—review all the Qs and answers. Petersons are harder than the real thing. Those PT scores sound good, but if you’re just guessing, that’s not the best way to pass the Clep. An up to date Official Clep Study Guide test would be the best thing to take, though.

65% or above on the OCSG, and you’ll be good to go. (Don’t forget to review the Qs and answers after you finish—it’s an invaluable resource, that PT.)
