    Question Put your hands together

    Pray for me that this coming Tuesday afternoon God takes over my clep test in Natural Science and guides me through this test. Iam as unprepared as anyone can be and my natural science intelligence would fill a small glass with a large leak in it! Just two tests to go and why in the world they have to be my most unfavorite subjects would only tell you that when I planned out my testing schedule I was apparently "OUT TO LUNCH". Yeah baby this is gonna be good. Stay tuned for the catastrophy!!!

    Now would that leak occur via osmosis or diffusion???

    Seriously, I'm sure that you will do fine Ron. Keep it together and absorb as much as possible about cellular functions and such as that will be a key topic. GOOD LUCK!!

    Smile Thanks for the words of encouragement

    Iam taking this test with the thought in mind that hopefully common sense and of the powers of "elimination and deduction" will see me through. I appreciate the words of encouragement! I will post a complete summary of my thoughts about this journey into the "unknown" after I complete the test. Curiously in the Barron's study guide that I have it claims that in this test you get deducted .25 points for each wrong answer..so guessing is not recommended. Does anyone know if that is really true? I was counting on making some huh..educated guesses, but now Iam concerned about doing that if their info is correct. They say the test is in two parts and is 60 questions in each part. Is that correct? Thanks again for the words of encouragement now all i need is a miracle and a merciful God looking over me!!

    Regards to all and remember to PASS'EM ALL ..YA'ALL!!
    Ron

    Ron,

    It must be an old edition of the book. CLEP hasn't penalized incorrect answers since they switched to CBT.

    It is ABSOLUTELY to your advantage to guess on each and every question for which you don't know the answer.

    Guess away Ron, guess away!

    Cool

    [b]Snazzle,

    It probably is an old edition of Barron's but I bought it just last week from Barnes and Noble. How dare they sell me outdated natural science materials..of course with my "limited" knowledge of the subject I could have been fooled by any update since the invention of the wheel! Test tomorrow..smile today...and then?????

    Regards from Ron the science GURU
