This is a lie! Not a matter of opinion but an out and out falsehood. I have taken multiple tests that in the beginning I knew nothing about. I spent time(not weeks and weeks)
studying and then I passed. Just because something is not easy doesn't mean it's hard. There is middle ground, as much as you try to pretend that there's not. I've said it over and over and I'll say it again, go to the Specific Exam Feedback section. There are hundreds, if not thousands of people there who have started from ZERO just like the OP AND they passed. You keep ignoring it doesn't change that fact!

If you have had exposure, or a natural affinity for a subject, of course it will be easier. Most people are good at some things and not at everything. If you liked biology in school, you'll take the biology clep, if you've always been great at literature, it's a no-brainer to take the A&IL clep. Most people are not good at everything, so I think that the other options are good for those scenarios. That's all I'm saying. I agree, I never tried study yet, it just LOOKED easier, but I could be wrong.
No one said you don't have to study to take a test. You are a liar who cannot read. Exposure to the material and studying are two different things. Don't try to lump them together because you don't like the fact that I pointed out how weird it was to choose based on no experience except liking the format.


But it will be hard if you don't know it!![[-]](https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/images/collapse.png)
