DutchMom Wrote:Thanks for the point in that direction! I had not considered that test because all of the CLEP tests, to me, seemed very difficult. And I have never taken a CLEP test before so I am very reluctant to try it. But, if I pass the DANTES Fundaments Of Counseling in a couple of days, that will leave me with only 6 credits. If I study and pass the Analyzing & Interpreting Literature CLEP test, then I might have a Bachelor's Degree by Christmas after all. I went on the CLEP website and took the practice test for this exam. I did well on the first part of the practice test, but I bombed that other half of it. That tells me what I need to brush up on if I decide to take the test. If anyone else has any ideas, please let me know. Thanks, NAP, for pointing me in that direction! I will look at it more closely! And if anyone has any good study guides for this test, that will help me too. Thanks!
Hi DutchMom!
I actually prefer CLEP over DANTES because there is usually an REA study guide (with practice tests), free Peterson's practice tests, and an Official CLEP practice test. I feel like I have a much better idea of what material I am expected to learn, which I don't get with DANTES.
