I'm going to lose my score on analyzing lit CLEP

[beastcoast94]

Unfortunately this is a good lesson to those whose schools do require the "optional" essays for any of the lit exams. No test center administrator is going to assume that you require those essays unless you specify that is the case. Those essays cost an additional $10 and have to be ordered from CLEP ahead of time (or after the fact for those who prefer to only have them ordered once they know for certain that they received a passing score on the multiple-choice section). Maybe there will come a day when these exams can be ordered and have them accessible on the computer, but last I heard they were paper/pencil booklets for you to handwrite in.

the college administers the exam. I didn't go somewhere else to take it. The test facilitator practically wrote the school's CLEP policy

is that because it's graded by the school that requires the essay? I've never talked to anyone in real life that's completed one.

correct.

If your school accepts the general Humanities CLEP, it's supposed to be pretty easy.

I've already completed that one :/
