AND IF IT'S ON THE CLEP, IT'S IN THIS BOOK

*Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool you
*Avoid the tricky Restructuring Sentences and Analyzing Writing questions on the English exam
*Tackle the Humanities exam by using clues in the questions
*Crack algebra problems by "plugging in" numbers in place of letters
*Ace the Social and Natural Science exams by tailoring your review to the tests

This book includes five full-length diagnostic exams that will predict your score on the CLEP.  The questions in these tests are exactly like the ones you'll find on the real CLEP, and we fully explain every solution.

5.0 out of 5 stars the clep in itself, October 15, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the CLEP, 1999 Edition (Paperback)
I bought this book on a whim....when it came down to test taking time, I read over the chapters I needed and any problems I couldn't understand, there was a simple and easy to read understanding of how to solve the problem. After taking the College Mathematics Clep, I would encourage anyone to take it and also buy this book. It was just as if I was going over the book again when I took the test.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST CLEP STUDY GUIDE, April 6, 2000
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the CLEP, 1999 Edition (Paperback)
Of all the General Exam study guides I've purchased, this was the most useful. The subject reviews were detailed, but comprehensive. The explanations of ALL the answers of the sample tests, both right and wrong were extremely helpful because they taught me how to "logic" through the choices.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best clep book ever, April 26, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the CLEP, 1999 Edition (Paperback)
This book has helped me in passing the college mathematics exam. I did not understand college math until I read this book. In the book the techniques that they show you to use are very comprehensive, and that is considered a plus for myself since I've never attended college or high school.
