CLEP HUMANITIES - Can I pass by just studying IC Flash cards? - Lee-Ann - 09-19-2013
Hi Everyone
Does anyone know if I will be able to pass the humanities clep exam by just studying the IC Flash cards? Will I need to look at more resources? It is such a wide subject, I don't know what to learn and how deep I need to go into the different areas of study.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Look up the Humanities test on the Specific Exam forum. The information there is spot on, and will be very helpful to you.

You need to realize we all have our own methods for studying and testing. I prefer reading a textbook through and watching lecture videos, while others prefer flashcards. At 43, I have been exposed to many ideas and concepts that come up on exams without having to study a particular subject.
The key to success is finding out what works for you.

Um, I'm a real student and the notes from pony girl helped me to pass, and i studied truly for 2 days. I got a 50 but i passed! Also, the rea book was helpful.

No it won't, I recommend the rea book. Also, look in specific exam info for pony girl and lady grace notes( very helpful).

This is all pretty unintelligible, but you couldn't pass an exam after 2 months of studying, and yet you accuse other people of not being real students??

Especially for such a broad test as Humanities, studying from a lot of resources and studying as many topics as you can, is best. I passed Humanities with 75 in a few weeks by doing that. And yes, I'm a real college student.

LOL honestly I felt that way when I joined, but since I've made friends with many, I can assure you this board is full of real people

Everyone's background is different so your ability to pass this exam and what you should study is at least partially based upon what you may already know. Although there may be people here who solely used IC to take exams, if you have absolutely no background in Humanities be diligent and use more than one resource. The specific exam feedback section is very valuable and for every post that says they passed using only IC, there are a number of posts that lists Education Portal videos, REA, Sparknotes, etc. and other methods of studying.
You cannot blame anyone here for your failure to adequately prepare for an exam. You do have to take some responsibility for your own actions or inactions.
