I'm new to this site and have no idea how to post a question on here, so hopefully I'm in the right place. I'm taking the intro to Sociology CLEP. I've studied IC's flashcards, but just took a Peterson's practice test. I recognized none of the information. How hard is this CLEP? Thanks!

Sociology is probably one of the easiest CLEPs out there. Keep studying and take a look at the "Specific Exam Feedback Section" of this website for more insight. I crammed for this test in a few hours and passed. Good Luck!

Hi, I aced it with under 5 hours of study. If you are struggling. Stay with it and you'll do great. I/C is awesome in this case.

I also thought Sociology was one of the easier tests. I went through IC once the morning of my test, got in the car, and took the test. I think I got a 57 on it.
Unfortunately, this "system" of studying backfired on me for DSST Drug and Alcohol. Failed that test by one point last June.

You could take 25 DSST tests or 27 CLEP tests for the price of 1 UoP class.

It was an easy CLEP. I think I only used IC for a couple days and took the Official CLEP Study Guide practice test. If you don't have that book of practice tests, I'd recommend it. They seem to be very comparable difficulty-wise to the real tests. Everyone who has taken Petersen's seems to agree that Petersen's tests are much harder.

I passed this one with only about a day of studying IC. It's not that difficult.

I never studied for this and passed with a 59. I found a little common sense goes a long way here. Of course this wasn't the first Clep I'd taken though.
