I know Natural Sciences is not an offered subject in the Instantcert course list, but I'm curious if anyone here has had experience with the CLEP Natural Sciences test, and if so:
What was it like? (esp. in comparison to Biology, which I have studied) &
What did you use to study?
Thanks so much, in advance!

Hi Stewart,
I took Natural Science and Biology. I failed NS by 1 point as I neglected to prepare for the chemistry portion. It is about 50% biology and I did pass the biology exam after I took NS. The closest questions to the actual test were in the College Board book with sample questions for all the exams. This was very similar. If you know the biology, do some basic chemistry and physics. The test isn't really that hard if you make sure you are prepared for the exam content. A really basic resource is chem4kids. Sounds silly, but it has great content. They also have a physics4kids. Peterson's has practice exams for Natural Science which are great. If you can score well on those, you should do fine on the exam. Good Luck!
