[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Blue"]Just back from taking the DANTES Civil War and Reconstruction exam.
Although I do not have the results back (hopefully within 3 weeks) but I feel that I passed with much thanks going to InstantCert for sure!!
Just to pick up on the current thread, I found the questions much more contemplative, having to really evaluate the question against what may have been 2 or more "possible" answers until making my final choice. Definately more to think about in the DANTES style exam than CLEP, however if you are well versed in the material you should do OK. Of course I'm speaking somewhat prematurely as I haven't received my results yet but test taking experiences thus far make me feel sufficiently confident.
Here's one more thought (question) for the group -- the exam consisted of 112 questions and the minimum passing score is "47" so how many questions overall do you think had to have been answered correctly? THANKS!! [/COLOR][/SIZE]
