    Question How Easy is Marketing?

    I'm looking for an easy credit for my free electives. Is Principles of Marketing (CLEP) easy?

    Most people say it is -- but - take the Peterson's test and see if you score about 50% or more. If so - then you'll probably come away saying it's easy!

    I didn't think it was an easy test. The ones that I thought were easy was social science and history and Analyzing & Intrepreting Lit and Here's to your Health. If you took Management, Principles of Supervision would be easy.

    If I had a choice between Management and Marketing, I'd go with the former. Management was easier for me.

    Marketing is fairly easy, but there is alot of reading to do on the actual exam. I run out of time, I did not answer about 10 or more questions but I ended up passing.
    Study IC great source, Time your self and you should be able to pass it

    If it's an option, Management is easier.

    Marketing did require prep work but it is definitely one of the easier exams. IC and the REA book practice test and CLEP practice test did it for me.

    I did Marketing after one day of studying with REA and passed. It was one of the easiest tests that I have taken.
