    Cool Tips on Humanities CLEP?

    I hear the Humanities CLEP is like studying for the SAT's - a lot of it is information you should just know. Is this true? I took the practice test in the CLEP site and didn't do too bad.

    Can anyone give me any suggestions for the Humanities CLEP? I'm taking it next Tuesday.

    Thanks!

    Have you looked through the established threads via the "search" feature?

    One other IMPORTANT thing......you need to get past (passed) either humanities or biology first before moving on to the next one.

    Based on your two threads (Bio and this one) it sounds as though you're still looking for study sources for both and have these two BIG EXAMS scheduled just two days apart (Tues & Thurs).

    Just a (well founded) suggestion, unless you're ready NOW, it may be prudent to focus on just one of these two mammoth topics individually.

    Good Luck!!

    I'm uneasy saying it's something you should "just know" in all instances. For me, a great deal was common knowledge. I would say it's a test that veers closer to "what do you know already" than "what have you just studied."

    If you are doing great on the tests good, but don't be too overconfident. I studied hard for a long time even though I'd say I am pretty good at literature and such. It was just so broad I had a hard time getting a grasp on it all. But once it clicks, it's a breeze. But, seriously, Humanities and Biology are hard tests. Make sure you know the information.
