Let me re-phrase... it doesn't have to be CLEP.

Any of these CLEP/DSST exams will do:

Principles of Macroeconomics (3)
Principles of Microeconomics (3)
Western Civilization I: Ancient Near East to 1648 (3)
Western Civilization II: 1648 to the Present (3)
History of the United States I: Early Colonization to 1877 (3)
History of the United States II:1865 to the Present (3)
American Government (3)
Introductory Psychology (3)
Human Growth and Development (3)
Introductory Sociology (3)
Social Sciences and History (General) (6)
General Anthropology (3)
Human/Cultural Geography (3)
Western Europe since 1945 (3)
The Civil War and Reconstruction (3)
An Introduction to the Modern Middle East (3)
A History of the Vietnam War (3)
Rise and Fall of the Soviet Union (3)
Organizational Behavior (3)

It's difficult to know what would be easy for you, only you can answer that. I myself would go for any of the history exams because I can breeze through them without too much problem. I left off some of the harder ones like Money & Banking and Substance Abuse, but if you're good at those then have at 'em. Good luck!

Thank you for your input!

I'm not a history buff, but I'm a good test-taker and am focused while studying. I was targeting Social Science and History since I could likely knock out the requirements in one swoop. I've read here that it's ranked easy to moderate. I've also seen Intro to Psych and Intro to Sociology as being considered "easy." It's been a while since I've studied any of the these subjects, so I wonder if it might make more sense to attack one subject (Social Science) and study hard using multiple resources.

I really couldn't say for sure since I took that test 21 years ago! Time flies... I can say that I took it cold and was able to pass it. With InstantCert you should be able to knock it out easily enough. 6 credits is good to take care of all at once. Smile
