Financial Acctg CLEP advice please

[BeeMarie]

Hi,

I've been studying for the Financial Accounting CLEP for a couple of weeks. I read Accounting Demystified, the DSST Financial Accounting study guide & practice tests, worked on the first 3 parts of the InstaCert flashcards.

I keep getting bogged down with the flash cards because they just have so much math in them. I really wish they either had math I could do in my head, or that they had relegated all the math to one section. I just can't seem to get through them because it takes too long to do all the math.

Has anyone taken the new CLEP (financial only) that can tell me an estimated ratio of how many questions will be about T-accounts (i.e., XYZ paid a bill for $300, so what account should you DR or CR and for how much each?) that type of thing...

There are alot of questions like that in the flash cards, and if the test is going to be like that then maybe I need to work harder on that part. Otherwise I think I am ready.

Thanks for any advice.
