Principles of Management CLEP

[wfauchier]

Hi everybody,

I've never taken a CLEP test before and have been prepping intensely for the Principles of Management CLEP using this site and the book my university recommends. By now, I understand the concepts and score very high on the InstantCert tests (all at random order).

To be extra prepared, I took the official CLEP practice test the other night and was surprised at two things.
1. There were a number of concepts in the test that were not mentioned on the InstantCert site.
2. I've read that the CLEP tests are not designed with trick questions, but some of those official CLEP practice questions were definitely tricky, and the answers ambiguous. Still, I got 75% of the questions right on the CLEP practice test.

Has anybody out there taken the Principles of Management CLEP test, and if so, is the test as difficult as the practice test? My university requires a score of 65 (national is 50, I think), but nobody here seems to be real clear on how the percentile ranking works.

Personally, I feel like I've gone into preparation overkill. I also have to take the marketing CLEP exam. Is there an experienced CLEP-exam-taker out there who has feedback on any of this?

Thanks,

Wayne
