Default US History 1 CLEP
Does anyone have any advice for me for this test? I have studied two weeks so far using mainly InstantCert and also reading some textbooks (Cliffnotes). I decided to put it off another week because of low scores on practice tests. I don't know how I'm studying wrong. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

Also study the collegeboard study guide some of their sample questions were on the actual exam.

Hi CaroM--

Glad to hear you passed. May I ask what resources you ultimately ended up using for your preparation? It sounds like InstantCert, the CliffNotes Review for History...did you end up using the Collegeboard study guide or the REA book?

Yes, I used Instacert and CliffNotes as my main study materials. I used the Collegeboard study guide just for the practice exam. I read through the REA book, but didn't use the practice exams. I also used Sparknotes and found it to be a very helpful resource.
