I'm taking the Marketing CLEP tomorrow morning. I think I'm as prepared as I can be. Can anyone that has taken this test provide any tips or guidance on the areas of concentration?

Hi Emily,

Here is a copy of what I wrote to another member regarding the Marketing exam:

snazzlefrag Wrote:Try not to get too stressed out by the Marketing exam. Instantcert has everything you need to know to comfortably pass it.

Things to Know:

Know what Star, Problem Child, Cash Cow, and Dog are.
Know all about the Four P's: Product, Place, Price, Promotion.
Know the stages of Buying Behavior.
Know the stages of New-product Development.
Know the stages of the Product Adoption Process.
Know what Vertical and Horizontal Channel Distribution are.
Know the Types of Buyers in the Product Diffusion Process.
Know Elasticity/Inelasticity of Demand.
Know New-task Buying, Straight Rebuy, Modified Rebuy.
Know Push Promotion and Pull Promotion.
Know the Sherman Antitrust Act.
Know the Clayton Act.
Know the Federal Trade Commission Act.
Know the Robinson-Patman Act.

If you know all of the above, you will be well on your way to an excellent score on this exam.

Also remember that it's a Pass/Fail exam.

Here's an extra link if you feel the need for some additional study material:

Hope that helps,

[SIZE="3"]I took this one last year. Snazz's post does contain all of the critical elements of what you need to know. Just FYI, I used IC, REA and the Standard Deviants video - GOOD LUCK!![/SIZE]

I just took it last week. I used instacert. It has a lot of questions that weren't on instacert per say, but had a lot to do with the material. It was the same material just presented in a different way. Im sure you will do well you just have to use common sense on some of the questions. Smile

So sorry for the delay in reporting back - I was busy studying for another exam. LOL

I passed Marketing with a score of 53! I actually said "Thank God" out loud in the testing center when I saw the score on the screen. hilarious

Snazzlefrag - thank you TONS for the info you provided. It helped immensely as a supplement to the other material I studied.

Today I passed Freshman College Composition with a 68. Two down, two to go!!
