This review is from: Clep Official Study Guide 1998: Official Study Guide (Serial) (Paperback)

I needed to take several CLEP tests and wanted the best overview of sample tests. This book met my needs. It covers the five general subjects as well as each individual CLEP test that is available. Each sample test is preceeded with an outline summary telling what percentage of what type of information is in each test. I used this information by comparing it to the Table of Contents in the book store to select appropriate text books.

I now have six tests under my belt and feel safe to say that the sample test questions in this book are much more difficult than the real tests.

I'd don't think I gained more than 2-3 points from each sample test. Instead, the sample tests gave me the mind-set for the real test as well as a self-confidence.

If you are working on a series of CLEP tests I would highly recommend this book. Why not five-stars? Instead of a single 25-question sample test for each subject, 2 or 3 sample tests would have been much more beneficial.
