What have you taken so far? There may be some overlap. Org behavior wasn't too bad and from what I can tell from reading Drug and Alcohol may be somewhat easy. Money and Banking is doable but is a more dificult exam.

Without knowing what tests you have taken, here is a stab at it. I would say Org. Behaviour is one of the most passable ones on that list. Good luck!

I'd say drug and alcohol, world pop, and org behavior.

If you have a psych background I'd lean towards abnormal psych and psychology of adulthood and aging. (there is tremendous overlap on the gerontology one with A&A but harder to get a top grade)

If you took the management test, org. beh is a natural.

And research methods seemed to be one that most did well on, particlarly if they took statistics. I got an A on it, but it was harder for me personally and I didn't do stats.

Just a word of advice TECEP test are book specific.

Psychology of women isn't bad a lot of common sense. But check because if you have to many psy it won't count for social science.

I would stick to dsst or clep test at least you get great info from those who have taken the test.

I would recommend World Pop or Juvenile Del, Cultural Diversity, World Conflict.

I passed them with minimal study time, BUT THAT IS JUST ME !

You may be different, and not have the background or experience in those fields, but I thought they were not that hard of an exam.Smile
