social sciences and history/college math
Hey everyone!
 I'm pretty new at this forum thing. But I've taken a bunch of tests for my degree and I didn't know if there was any insight on these next two. Tomorrow, actually, I'm taking social sciences and history. I've taken History I and II, sociology, psychology, economics, almost everything they say to study for it. But, I'm still nervous about passing it. Some say it's really hard. Some say it's a breeze. Any pointers? I'm also studying for college math which is really not my thing. I'm learning, but I always have trouble applying the book learning to a test or other application. Anyone have any hints on that for me? I'd appreciate it. I have another week and a half or so for that.

For Social Sciences and History, if you've studied all of those individual subjects, then it really shouldn't be a problem.
I would recommend using Petersons and the official CLEP study guide's sample questions, and you should do great.

I found the English Comp. with Essay to be one of the easiest CLEPs I've taken. The multiple choice was basic high school english. The essay part I practiced for with sample questions and timed myself. That was harder. I really don't think I did a very good job at all, but I passed fine. If you set it up right, like opening/introduction, 2 or 3 paragraphs of points, and conclusion, you shouldn't have much trouble. : )

How many flashcards for Social Sciences?
Hi;
I'm new to InstantCert forums...first time I've really browsed around, but already it's been really encouraging! Hey, all these people have passed these oodles of CLEPS and DANTES "no problem" (well, at least without TOO much trouble), so why can't I  ?Also, I had a question about Social Sciences. Like other people, I've taken U.S. History I and II, Western Civ I and II, American Government, Sociology and Psychology--now my only question is, need I review the flashcards for each indivdual subject, all 1000+ of them, for the Social Sciences CLEP? If I do, I'll hunker down with right good will ...but it would be nice if I could go through this a little faster.Any advice about Social Sciences would be welcome!
