A little confused about the CLEP scoring method - arwenk - 01-01-2008
I will be taking my first CLEP in 10 days. Some people claim that it is best to guess if you are unsure, while others state that it is better to leave questions blank. Does it really make a difference? I would love to hear from someone with experience and a clearer knowledge of the scoring practice.
Thanks!

G'day,
CLEP exams do not penalize for incorrect answers so the best approach is to answer every question even if you need to guess at some.
I posted my approach my approach to doing the exams a while ago. It isn't for everyone but it gives an idea of how I approached each exam.
I hope this is of some assistance
Regards
