I LOVE this book! I totally failed AP English in high school, and I never went back to studying English after that(I hated English after AP English Lit!) until this CLEP exam came up. I also suggest you also buy Diana Hacker's english reference since it has a good review, as well as REA's general practice test books. But this book alone was my CLEP English bible- there's a brief review which is enough for someone who knows English well, but if you're like me, I'd also get another good grammar book.

This book is a great refresher for English Comp. I passed the test with a 500 using this book and the Cracking Clep book. The practice exams in the book helped a lot! The exams in the Cracking Clep book are great also, and there are also helpful tips to help you pass, especially on the essay section.

The book reflects a very basic grammar. The test was 10 times harder than the sample tests that were on the book. I would not recommended at all.

gives a lot of info that is relevant for the clep. I wont get my test results until March, but I think that this book definately helped me prepare for the test.
