Exempt,
This is really up to you. What is easy for one person is tough as hell for another. I'm getting my BA in English so I attacked College Comp (w/essay) first because I knew it would take the longest since they have to grade the essay. Next I took Analyzing & Interpreting Lit because I knew it would help me out with English & American Lit. I would say that Analyzing & Interpreting lit was the easiest. The only prep I did was reading the book "How to Interpret Lit Like a Professor" and that I only read the first 100 pages the day before the exam however I did review all the literary terms that you find on the CLEP thread "Analzying & Interpreting Lit" on this forum. I passed with a 74 with only a day or two study. But that's me. I have a really good capacity for remembering facts in a short amount of time. Some people are really good with math whereas I would run away screaming from a math CLEP *lol*. Some people love history and watch the history channel all the time and might be able to pass any of the history cleps with minimal study. Just figure out what you are good at & tackle the clep or dsst that is right for you. Good luck
