I am scheduled to take this Clep in two weeks and would appreciate any help or feedback. Words of advice and wisdom from those who have taken this particular exam. Thanks in advance!!!

Been a while since I took it, but from what I remember it's a very basic level of computer knowledge. Much like Intro to Computing, expect a mixture of the last few generations of computer technology, nothing nit-picky, but mostly the highlights of what was in common use. Good luck, and I'm sure someone with a more recent take will drop a line soon.

Thank you so much, I did check this area first but the posts seemed old, maybe I'm doing something wrong???

I took the DSST version, and was amazed at how out-of-date it was (which was probably why I had a really easy time passing it!). I mean, if you knew what you were doing on computers in 1990, you are golden. I would not have my kids take the DSST, as they would have NO CLUE what most of the stuff was on there. If you're under the age of 30, I would not recommend it without studying. It's more like a history course than a computer course. hilarious

Not sure how the CLEP compares, sorry. I did not use IC to study for it, but I recommend it.
