5-0 out of 5 stars saved a grand
Thanks to this book I do not have to take a human growth and development class saving me a thousand at least. To get the best use of this book you should first take test one review the answers to all the questions then retest on the ones you missed until you eventually get them all correct. After that read the 13 chapter study guide. Then take test two and repeat the cycle reading the study guide after taking each of the three test for a total of three times. Then before the actual test take the official practice test to see how you do to make sure you can get the score you need so you do not waste your time taking the test.

3-0 out of 5 stars REVIEW FOR HUMAN GROWHT/DEVELOPMENT
I TOOK TEST AND FELT THAT THIS BOOK IS INFORMATIVE BUT NOT ENOUGH TO HELP YOU PASS THIS TEST. YOU DEFINITELY NEED A COLLEGE TEXTBOOK ON HUMAN LIFE SPAN TO PASS THIS TEST.THE TEST HASALOT OF INFORMATION NOT CONTAINED IN CLEP EXAM BOOK AND YOU NEED MORE DETAILS IN TERMS OF INFORMATION ON GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT.YOU CAN PASS THIS TEST IF YOU STUDY AND USE ADDITIONALY RESOURCES.A VERY GOOD BOOK TO SUPPLEMENT WITH IS HUMAN LIFE SPAN BY DIANA PAPALIA. GOOD LUCK.I REALLY FELT I PASSED BECAUSE OF THESE TWO BOOKS

1-0 out of 5 stars Know your College ACE score
REA did not do their homework! This REA book only covered a third of the information that was on the test I took. I was able to guess my way to a 50 ACE (College "C" equivalency) score, but that is not good enough for my college which requires a 63. This book was a waste of time. Do not buy this book until they turn out a newer version or make it the last after studying Sociology and Psychology and you will do better. If your college accepts a lower ACE score than mine, you should be okay especially after preparing for the Sociology and Psychology CLEPs. I wish I had read the reviews before taking the exam. That will not happen again.

4-0 out of 5 stars REA CLEP
I haven't taken the CLEP yet but this text contains the most condensed information of the other sources I'm using to study for this CLEP. I've taken one CLEP already and have a feeling that this book will help me pass the Human Growth and Development CLEP. So far I've not found a better resource.

1-0 out of 5 stars So much time wasted!
I spent over a month pouring over this text, learning every word, and it completely led me astray.This book leaves out huge sections of information that is really important to the exam, including whole sections of information listed on the collegeboard website in the description of the exam.They also expanded at length on completely irrelevant information.There were typos in the practice exam and often the test questions woud ask specific questions about information never covered in the text!It goes into statistics and psychobiology in FAR too much depth.I spent so much time memorizing and learning information thatdid me no good.This book is a COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!I am so angry with this book.Buy the sample questions from the College Board website and then read about the subject matter of each question in a developmental textbook.Trust me, that is the way to go. ...

About Research & Education Association
Research & Education Association (REA) is an organization of educators, scientists, and engineers specializing in various academic fields. Founded in 1959 with the purpose of disseminating the most recently developed scientific information to groups in industry, government, high schools, and universities, REA has since become a successful and highly respected publisher of study aids, test preps, handbooks, and reference works.

REA's Test Preparation series includes study guides for all academic levels in almost all disciplines. Research & Education Association publishes test preps for students who have not yet completed high school, as well as high school students preparing to enter college. Students from countries around the world seeking to attend college in the United States will find the assistance they need in REA's publications. For college students seeking advanced degrees, REA publishes test preps for many major graduate school admission examinations in a wide variety of disciplines, including engineering, law, and medicine. Students at every level, in every field, with every ambition can find what they are looking for among REA's publications.

While most test preparation books present practice tests that bear little resemblance to the actual exams, REA's series presents tests that accurately depict the official exams in both degree of difficulty and types of questions. REA's practice tests are always based upon the most recently administered exams, and include every type of question that can be expected on the actual exams.

REA's publications and educational materials are highly regarded and continually receive an unprecedented amount of praise from professionals, instructors, librarians, parents, and students. Our authors are as diverse as the fields represented in the books we publish. They are well-known in their respective disciplines and serve on the faculties of prestigious high schools, colleges, and universities throughout the United States and Canada.

CHAPTER 1 - PASSING THE CLEP GENERAL CBTs

ABOUT THIS BOOK
This book, part of REA's two-volume set for the most thorough preparation for the CLEP General Examinations available, provides you with an accurate and complete
review for the five CLEP General Computer-Based Tests, or CBTs. Inside you will find reviews - all based on the official CLEP exams - for each of the following subjects: English Composition (with and without Essay), Humanities, Mathematics,
Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences and History. You will also find drill questions that will help you prepare for the actual exam. For each drill, we provide an answer key with detailed explanations designed to help you better grasp and retain the test material.

This volume contains extensive topical reviews and drills prepared expressly to help you get ready for the CLEP General CBTs. Full length practice tests paralleling the actual exams are presented in our companion volume, REA's The Best Test Preparation for the CLEP General Exams.

ABOUT THE CLEP GENERAL CBTS

Who takes the CLEP General CBTs and what are they used for?
CLEP examinations are usually taken by people who have acquired knowledge outside the classroom and wish to bypass certain college courses and earn college credit. The College-Level Examination Program is designed to reward students for learning - no matter where or how that knowledge was acquired. More than 2,900 colleges grant credit and/or advanced standing for CLEP exams. This makes CLEP the most widely accepted credit-by-examination program in the country.

Although most CLEP examinees are adults returning to college, many graduating high school seniors, enrolled college students, and international students also take the exams to earn college credit or to demonstrate their ability to perform at the college level. There are no prerequisites, such as age or educational status, for taking CLEP examinations. However, you must meet specific requirements of the particular institution from which you wish to receive CLEP credit.

Most CLEP examinations include material usually covered in an undergraduate course with a similar title to that of the exam (e. g., History of the United States I). However, the five exams covered in this book do not deal with subject matter covered in any particular course but rather with material taken as general requirements during the first two years of college. These general exams are English Composition (with or without essay), Humanities, College Mathematics, Natural Sciences, and Social Sciences and History.

Who administers the exams?
The CLEP is developed by the College Board, administered by Educational Testing Service (ETS), and involves the assistance of educators throughout the country. The test development process is designed and implemented to ensure that the content and difficulty level of the test are appropriate.

When and where are the exams given?
The CLEP General Examinations are offered year-round at some 1,400 test centers in the United States and abroad. To find the test center nearest you and to register for the exam, you should obtain a copy of the free booklets CLEP Colleges and CLEP Information for Candidates and Registration Form, which are available at most colleges where CLEP credit is granted, or by contacting:

CLEP Services

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

What do I study first?
Read over this introduction and our suggestions for test-taking, take the first practice test in your subject to determine your area(s) of weakness, and then go back and focus your studying on those specific problems. Make copies of the appropriate answer sheets each time you take a practice test (answer sheets are located at the back of this book). Studying each subject thoroughly will reinforce the basic skills you will need to do well on the exam. Be sure to take the practice tests to become familiar with the format and procedures involved with taking the actual exam - and, of course, to make yourself completely comfortable with the material.

To best utilize your study time, follow our CLEP General Examinations Independent Study Schedule located in the front of this book. This schedule is designed to guide you through one General Examination at a time. You should repeat the schedule for each exam for which you're preparing. The schedule is based on a six-week program but can be condensed to three weeks, if necessary, by collapsing each two-week period into one.

When should I start studying?
It is never too early to start studying for the CLEP General Examinations. The earlier you begin, the more time you will have to sharpen your skills. Do not procrastinate! Cramming is not an effective way to study, since it does not allow you the time needed to learn the test material. The sooner you learn the format of the exam, the more time you will have to familiarize yourself with it.

FORMAT OF THE CLEP GENERAL CBTs
The five computer-based CLEP General Examinations cover material taught in classes that most students take as requirements in the first two years of colleg... ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but questions are too easy
I bought this book and studied it for 3 days to take my CLEP in Biology. I took the tests and did well. I read the material, and I also reviewed "Cracking the CLEP"

When I went to take the actual CLEP, I found the questions on the test to be much harder than the ones in the books. Be that as it may, I passed the CLEP with a 65 out of 80, so I guess it got me through the test.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good news.Bad news.
GOOD NEWS:

This book gives full and complete explanations for all correct answers on the practice exam in the book.It also gives full explanations about the incorrect answers as well.Because they MAY come up on the actual test.

This book allows you to study for FIVE CLEP tests.


BAD NEWS:

Because the book is so large, they did NOT have room for a section to give you BASIC information on a subject before the practice test.Most of the other books in this series have a study section, BEFORE the practice exam.

However, this book alone will help you pass if you have prior knowledge of a subject that you are testing on.If you do not have knowledge of the subject in question, use this book, plus one or more of the other test books mentioned in other reviews.

1-0 out of 5 stars information does not match on the exam
I failed the clep exam of social science and history just using this book. I studied for 5 months before taking the exam. The questions you will see on the exam is totally different to the information of the book. I am a pretty good test taker and i have no education background of social science and history. I think this book just only can be the reference guide. If you want to pass the test choose another book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Another Great Guide to CLEP Preparation

5-0 out of 5 stars This is all you need to pass this clep test!
This is all you need to pass the Clep test for Principles of Marketing. Between the text in the book and the practice tests on cd you will be prepared. I read the text (about 60 pages), took each practice test, reviewed each practice test by reading the explanations for each question, and then reviewed the text again to put it all in perspective. All in all I spent about 10-12 hours preparing. I had no prior marketing knowledge and passed with flying colors. I highly recommend this book.

4-0 out of 5 stars Principles of Marketing CLEP preparation
The questions in the book are pretty thorough with their coverage of Marketing principles. However, the text (instruction) portion of the book does not cover all of the material needed to answer the questions.

4-0 out of 5 stars Helped Me!
I bought this book as a review for the Clep Marketing Test as my marketing class didn't transfer to my new college.The book with the CD-ROM supplies plenty of information and test practice for anyone, even with no knowledge of marketing.A great choice!

4-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Study Guide for Marketing
This book with the CD ROM is an excellent resource for the Marketing CLEP.I know there's a lot of reviews on here who says all you need to do is skim the book in order to pass the test.Not true at all.If you have never taken a marketing class before and you have very little concept about marketing, i would suggest that you study this book as much as you can to get familiar with all the theory and concepts that you will find on the test.My advice,read all nine chapters and highlight important parts (the chapters are extremely short).There are 3 sample test, 100 questions each.If you haven't taken any marketing before, like me, study those questions and explanations like a mad man and make sure you understand every single one of them and why each answer is right or wrong.I studied for two weeks non-stop and got a 65% (you need a 50 to pass) so believe me, its not as SIMPLE as some reviewers make it out to be. If you study that book THOROUGHLY, it will give you enough of an understanding of the theories in order to pass.Just as a precaution, there's 100 questions on the actual test, u don't need to get 50 questions right to pass.Actually, if you get 50 questions right out of all 100; with the way it's set up, you're score would be a 43% (FAILED). Lowest score you can get is a 20 and the highest you can get is an 80.Study enough and try to get as many questions correct.Be THOROUGH.

p.s. watch out for the question about internet security and the use of cookies.Not the cookies you eat :)

5-0 out of 5 stars Love it!
Used only this book for the CLEP test, passed with extreme flying colors. I personally do the review first then the practice tests, instead of the 1st practice test first; works better for me that way. I LOVE CLEP tests! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars CLEP Companion Material
Excellent companion material to the official CLEP guide. Dteailed explainations to practice problems - written in "mini" text book format covering the subject matter and not only test questions.

2-0 out of 5 stars CLEP round 2
I attempted the Eng Comp I & II CLEP last October and had studied primarily from this workbook.I was very reasured after working through all the exercises and tests of this workbook that my CLEP would reflect the high scores.It did not.I scored 49 and did not pass.The actual CLEP was an order of magnitude greater in difficulty than the workbook and indicated to me that I was not adequately prepared.I am a 3.85 student, study intensely, and have many professors with degrees in English ask if I write professionally.Although this does not qualify me for anything other than a probablility of passing the CLEP, my expectations to perform exceptionally well was high.

I am planning to take the test again and my strategy this time is to study from several different sources which, perhaps, was my mistake previously, but quite honestly, I was very confident from working the exercises in this book that I would have no worries with the actual test.Best wishes to all looking to CLEP, as it is indeed a challenge not to be underestimated, no matter how great you percieve your ability to achieve.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good review material
I reviewed the material included for approximately one week and passed the test with a score of 66. I found the actual examination to be more difficult than the practice exams. I was able to complete the practice exams in a fraction of the time allotted, but almost ran out of time when taking the actual CLEP.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great review material for the CLEP
I haven't attended college in 12 years; I purchased this book and studied it for approximately 2 weeks, took the Freshman English Comp exam without the essay and passed with a 68.I would highly reccommend this book for the CLEP but you do need to review the material and utilize the practice exams.Good Luck! ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Great for recalling old knowledge
The COMEX guide is 1/2 inch thick and you've got to have paid attention during High School Life/Physical Science or have read a one dollar thrift shop college text book to have an expectation of passing any of the CLEP exams. I went 13/14 and 54 semester hours in 2006, only failed the Public Speaking DSST because I didn't go three minutes. The COMEX books aren't cram guides but they are among the best available for those with needing to recall old knowledge or make sense of new material from a used textbook. I found the Rudman to be the most difficult to understand while the Barrons, Princeton Review, Peterson's are somewhere in the middle.

3-0 out of 5 stars A good starting point for the test, but plan a few more items
I used this book for the CLEP natural sciences exam.This book is a good starting point for your review, but it's not enough.I used this book as the primary resource, followed by the Official Study Guide 17th edition for review of test questions.I also bought Barron's Review Course Series, Let's Review Earth Science book for review.It covers a lot of stuff in more detail.Be prepared for the Biology and Chemistry portions of this test.I studied the CLEP guide I'm reviewing here and found the questions in the back to be pretty good, followed by testing myself with the CLEP Offical study guide and the Barron's book for thumbing through for review areas.I studied for 2 days, maybe 5 hours total and scored a 68 on this test.I hope that helps and good luck if you plan to take this test.

2-0 out of 5 stars Need more than just this book
I studied from this book as well as the CLEP General Exam book for 4 weeks and still did not pass the test.Now I must wait 6 mths before retaking this subject, and I am now looking for another book to further educate me material that was in the actual clep test. The information covered in the review book is not sufficient. This guide focuses on some areas that are not covered in the exam. The exam has areas that are not covered in this book. The book has a lot of information, but not enough to sufficiently study for the Natural Science CLEP exam.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not an Easy Way Out
This book is designed to assist students in refreshing their memories about science.It gives good test taking tips, and it gave me an idea as to which other books I needed to read.I ended up checking out more books from the library including: biology, chemistry, and geology.My science knowledge was not that strong when I started studying for the test, but I passed the test after studying the subject for 3 months.In short, this book is NOT a quick fix to passing the science clep.I gave it 3 stars because it did point me in the right direction.Good Luck!

2-0 out of 5 stars Not enough information

I got three credit hours by taking a 3 hour test cant beat that for savingmoney, book helped me do this.

3-0 out of 5 stars Do not use this book alone for test!
This book gave me a general idea of what would be on the CLEP test, but when I actually took the test, the exam questions were MUCH harder then the review questions in the book. I passed, but would not recommend using this book alone!

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Book
This book came just in the neck of time, I needed it right away.It helped me and i felt very confident.Thanks

2-0 out of 5 stars a little help
This book is NOT enough to pass the CLEP.It IS easy to read and does provide much knowledge.HOWEVER, I would have failed had I relied solely on this book. I also used Peterson's CLEP Success which helped me pass the exam much more than this book.I would suggest using them both.

1-0 out of 5 stars Not even close!
I used this book solely as a review for the CLEP exam, and received a score of 55 (barely passing) as opposed to the actual CLEP books - I got a 96 using the "official CLEP guide".

This book barely has any of the actual test material included in it, and the test had many, many things not even remotely touched upon in the book.I definitely will NOT use this brand again. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars CLEP for Sociology
Just took this test and scored a 69.The book reviews a lot, but not everything I found in the exam today.I didn't use any other material,except for occasionally looking up some of the sociologists on the web. It helps to get a sense of what theories are related to what person.
I used some keywords to remember concepts from each person that the book spoke about, like "Cooley=Looking Glass Theory" and "Max Weber= Versensten" or however that is spelled. Those 2 German words that start with "G" Gemienstien and Gesellstien (spelling is wrong but if you read it you'll know what I mean). I just remembered the 'Ge-mein' one is rural and the Ge-sell is urban- that helped me get an answer correct about those.
It helps to know the basic concepts of some of the theories, because the questions can really sound different on the actual CLEP test, but if you remember the concept, you'll be ok.I wasn't sure how I had done, I finished it in about 65 minutes- but looks like I got the equivalent of an A. I'd recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent study guide for sociology
This book is very good for the CLEP sociology. It is concise, has practice tests, and the rationales for all the answers. I recommend it very highly for anyone who has to take this course.

4-0 out of 5 stars Helpful
This is a great study guide, with (3) 90 question practice exams. This study guide really focuses on what you need to know for the exam.

5-0 out of 5 stars It was a great help!!
For anyone who is going to take a CLEP test in order to skip a course, buy one of these study guides!!It helped me greatly in passing the exam with effortless ease.But still, one should study other books before taking the CLEP test.Regardless, these study guides are must.They are a little expensive, but they will save you hundreds, even thousands, of dollars by skipping the course.I highly recommend it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good
I used this prepbook and "Sociology : A Down-to-Earth Approach (7th Edition)" (w/ study guide) by James M. Henslin.Studied and finished both books in about a month.Got a 77 (needed a 75 to pass).

I would not recommend using this book alone if you need a high score like I did.The value lies in its good review of the fundamentals and excellent practice tests.If you don't need a high score, just skim the textbook but make sure you work through the practice test questions and answers. Do that and you'll be just fine! ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars NICE BOOK BUT NOT COMPREHENSIVE ENOUGH!
Yes like some of these other reviews say this is a nice book but the fact is that this book alone may not be enough to pass the Human Growth & Development CLEP test. Yes there are several other reviews about this CLEP test and this books preparation for it but most of the reviews are over a year old and are outdated. If you have no prior college experience and have never taked a CLEP test before and a lot of people haven't then you need to avoid this book by REA and this CLEP test and first try something easy like CLEP Principles of Marketing which REA also makes a book for. You should not depend on this book and this book alone to pass this CLEP test at least supplement it with something such as the College Board CLEP Guide which is on the shelf in almost any bookstore. Furthermore if you have never taken a CLEP test before avoid Human Growth and Development and take an easier CLEP test instead.

3-0 out of 5 stars It gets the job done
It's not a great book, but it gets the job done. Several questions even in the sample tests simply are not related to what you find in the text and the real test also has a number of questions that the book doesn't answer. No reason to learn the book by heart. Common sense counts for about 40-44 points (50 = pass). You'll be ok.

4-0 out of 5 stars Growth and Development CLEP
I took the clep and passed with a 59.I would not have passed without this book.Study and know the different theories, particularly Piaget.The overall test was not as easy as some have described.If you study and learn the contents of this book you will pass. Definately recommended.

3-0 out of 5 stars I passed
If I wouldn't have used this book, I wouldn't have passed. I studied about 2 weeks for the CLEP exam and passed with 63 points. I really knew the contents of this book and if I wouldn't have, I probably would have failed. However, the book only reflects about 50% of the actual exam. There were some defenitions on the exam and some topics that were covered in the book. I also used a college text book which included some of the questions on the exam, but I've never seen about 20-30% of the questions in my life. If the book would really reflect the exam, I think I would have had less difficulty. My tip: use the book and really know the content. Forget about the questions in the back. They don?t really help. They just make you frustrated. Use a college text book and learn about researches. Make sure you know the theorists well. Especially Piaget. There were also many questions about child development and intelligence. A few questions about biology and mental illnesses and very few about aging. The CLEP exam was not so easy. I answered many questions by guessing and eliminating but make sure you think fast. You only have 90 minutes. I almost ran out of time at the end, but I still made it.

Wish you all good luck!!!

4-0 out of 5 stars Easy exam topass
I have taken 4 CLEP exams till now and this turned out to be the one I needed least preparation in. The exam is not that tough, its mostly about current research and general questions (general viewpoint about cultures, teenagers etc). The book gives u a base to go for the exam and if u guess right and eliminate the wrong answers, You should do fine. ... Read more

not as hepful as I thought it would be to prepare my daughter.wasn't her type of learning style

4-0 out of 5 stars Good Practice
This book is good practice for the CLEP.Do not be concerned if you get a lot wrong, the CLEP test is easier.Also, if you want to save money, this book is alsmost identical to the SAT II: Subject Test Literature except the SAT book is 17.00 instead of 26.00.The most important part is reading the detailed answers, it will help you see what your thinking should be

5-0 out of 5 stars Passed my exam
I studied for about 2 weeks when 1 week would have sufficed. While it was deffinitely overkill with all the information that they provide you with. It definitely prepares you well for the test. If you are looking for an easy 6 credits - I highly recommend using this book for review.

5-0 out of 5 stars WOULD NOT HAVE PASSED WITH IT THIS BOOK!
I passed the CLEP exam with a 64.If I had followed the instructions in the book and studied the recommended 6-weeks I would have scored much higher.Instead I waited until the last minute and only studied for a few hours over a period of 2 days.That said I would NEVER have been able to pass the exam without this book.The practice exams were the most helpful.If you want to pass this CLEP exam I highly recommend you purchase this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Study Guide
I used only this study guide and was able to pass my CLEP.Very pleased.I have had a lot of CLEP success with the REA study guides.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent
I was on medical leave and spent 1 week studying this book and the management book and passed both tests.

This book is short, I believe only about 75 pages to read.When I took the practice tests, I could not find where that subject matter had been covered.However if you just read the book, take the 3 tests and read the answer explanations, it will suffice.

5-0 out of 5 stars All you need!
I took my first CLEP Exam earlier today (Principles of Marketing) and I went into the exam with no prior knowledge of marketing concepts.After studying this book, I scored a 65 (my university required a 52 for credit).

This book is all you will need in order to pass the CLEP exam.I procrastinated studying until the night before.I did read all of the material, which was only about 50 pages (75 including tips and strategies for studying) and took all 3 practice exams.Make sure you read the descriptions to the answers in the back because they explain a great deal of new material not covered in the text.

The Marketing CLEP was easy, and you only need about 6 hours of study time MAXIMUM in order to pass.I studied for only 4 hours and passed easily.Good luck!

5-0 out of 5 stars The only book you'll need.
I just passed the Marketing CLEP exam this morning with 8 points to spare. I have never taken a Marketing class before, and this is the only book I looked over to prepare for the test. If you have a general knowledge and awareness of sales and business, you should pass if you review this book.

My only recommendation is not to take the weeks the author suggests for preparing for the test. 45 minutes every day for a week is all you should need, MAX. Also, on the practice exams in the book there are a lot of 'All of the Above' or 'None of the Above' answer choices. There wasn't a single question like that on the actual exam.

4-0 out of 5 stars I PassedWithA69
I have taken three Clep Exams within the last 45 days. This exam was not as easy Intro To Sociology and not as difficult as Principals of Management. I used REA prep materials successfully with those exams as well. I read the book, took two practice exams, and took the Clep exam. I passed with a 69. Everything you need to pass the exam is in this book and I recommend it. Good Luck! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Best study guide you can buy
REA has possibly the best study material you can buy. I purchased this book about a month before taking the test and read it off and on and scored a 65. If I had been more earnest in my studies I'm sure I would have scored higher. So that part was all on me.

5-0 out of 5 stars Clep Western Civilization I (REA Test Preps)
I recently passed the Western Civ I CLEP at an "A" level after using this book as my only resource. In addition, I only had five days to prepare for the exam. The practice tests were a wonderful aid in my preparations, and the detailed explanations of answers were a condensed study guide for the questions I missed on the practice tests. The format is very reaqdable, and the entire book is user friendly. The only suggestion for improvement would be to put the test, answer sheets and score grid on tear-out pages to make them easier to use. Overall a five star+ product.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent material
I did read Western Civilization, A Brief History, by Jackson J. Spielvogel, but this book is the one that helped me to pass this exam.I read the outline and detailed explanation of the answers in this book and repeated the practice tests until I was able to answer 110 out of 120 questions correctly.This book included information that relates to most of the actual CLEP exam questions, and I felt quite confident during the exam.I scored 68 and was very happy with my result.

4-0 out of 5 stars good study guide
I studied for three days using this book and the western civilization section of the official study guide. In this book there were pictures of art and architecture in the exam section that you had to indentify, in the actual clep there were only two that I can remember. Also in the exam section of this book lots of maps to indentify, don't get worried because on the actual clep, picture of the maps were so much better and there were only about three questions. I think if you've taken world history and or art history classes, you would fair well on this exam. I did pass with a score of 65. ... Read more

I used this guide and also reviewed the questions in the Official CLEP Study Guide for this test.I read the material once, and did 1 1/2 of the practice exams and read through the answers.The coverage was good, there is a lot of material, however like always guage your own abilities and retention when determining study time.I scored a 68 on this test.Good luck.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Big Help!
My HIGH SCHOOL Freshman and I just returned from her Western Civ CLEP exam.She scored a 67!No, we can't give REA all the credit she did follow the College Board's recommendation and studied a college text on Western Civ, but REA deserves a lot of credit still.The practice tests helped her focus on what she was weak in and the review sections she said were very helpful.My daughters have taken 6 CLEP exams using REA guides as an aid and have passed every one.It's worth the money!

5-0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive!!!
This company has produced a comphrehensive and practical guide to the Clep.Though I also reread a couple different textbooks, I almost regret spending the time to do so given how comphrehensive this study guide really was.The chapters outlining important historical information, including even some obscure names, were fantastic and the explanations to right/wrong answers in the practice test were helpful.I will concur with other reviews as well.I was averaging in the fifties for the practice test and, for the real test, scored a 76.So, study it and relax.This book really prepares you. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Another passable test from REA.
This is another passable test, the material covered is excellent.I recommend the following, before taking this test take the Intro to Psychology test and/or the Intro to Socialogy test.This test builds off of these other tests for your overall knowledge.I rank this test on par with the Human Growth and Development test.It is slightly more difficult than the first two tests I mentioned above, but still very passable and it builds off your previous knowledge.This book is what you need for this test.

1-0 out of 5 stars About 20% useful
I'm a college professor and two of my advisees studied this book before taking the Ed Psych CLEP.They both agreed that this text was only useful for about 20% of the questions.Most questions on the CLEP test they took were not covered by this study guide, so my students were frustrated and angry over the time they had wasted studying this text.

5-0 out of 5 stars great prep
very helpful the cd practice tests lets you see exactly what you need to review.I used it for about a week and found it prepared me well for the test, and made the test seem very easy.

4-0 out of 5 stars Good source for CLEP
This book was a good source for the Educational Psychology CLEP. I gave it 4/5 stars because I just took both an introductory psychology and elementary statistics course at my local college last quarter.I'm not sure I would have passed this CLEP without that prior knowledge.

That aside, this book was a good study guide--but take the introductory psychology CLEP before you take this one.

I scored 59/80 on this test, which is the lowest score I've received out of the 4 CLEP's I've taken to date.I studied 1 1/2 hours per day for 1 week.

I also used the Official CLEP Study Guide from the College Board.

Good luck!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Supplement for Passing CLEP
Just scored 73/80 after studying 5 days total.No prior knowledge of psychology (well, I took it in HS 16 yrs ago).

I purchased this book the night before taking the Intro to Psych CLEP exam.I had been studying InstantCert.com for about 4 days prior.This book was an excellent supplement to the information I had learned on InstantCert.

The InstantCert info was like building the knowledge base with facts and concepts.
Then this REA book took all those facts and tied them all together in a readable format that solidified the entire subject.It was a fast read - about 2 hours for 100 pages.

The practice tests are instrumental in performing well on the CLEP.Do those tests until you get the answers right and have a good understanding of those answers.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great resource for this test.
Once again another well written book by the people at REA.I used this book and passed the CLEP.Realize there is a lot of material for this test.I studied about 5 hours the day/night before the test and passed with a 61.I could have done better with just this book and more time spent studying the material, however the point is this is a very passable test with this book.Study according to your own test taking ability before trying the test.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not so great -Review book mostly
I passed the clep Western Civilization II, not too long ago.
I used this book, but as i was taking the test i realized that most of the information was much harder than the one on the practice exam...
I was able to pass the test, because i knew some information that did not figure in the book.

Also the cd has the same 2 tests that are in the book also, so i would recommend buying the one with the CD to people who are not familiar with the Celp format.

If i were you, i would use this book, for review ONLY!! Use a college western civilization textbook also.....

Good luck!!!

5-0 out of 5 stars CLEP Western Civilization II w/ CD-ROM
Great book!It was a great review book after studying the subject.I would recommend this anyone who is planning on taking the CLEP exam.It helped my daughter pass the exam.

3-0 out of 5 stars Won't help you pass..
I studied and studied for the Western Civ II test with this book and was correctly getting well over 100 right on the practice exams. I went to take the test today and only scored a 48. There were many topics on the test that this book didn't cover or even mention. This book alone will not help you pass this exam..

5-0 out of 5 stars EXCELSIOR STUDENTS YOU CAN PASS THIS CLEP TEST!
The Western Civilization II CLEP test is rarely taken and this is to my knowledge the only comprehensive study guide for it other than the recently released and unproven review by National Learning Corporation which lacks a CBT sample test for your home computer. This REA CLEP guide didn't hit the bookstores and Amazon until December 31, 2005. Before then if you took this CLEP test you had no idea what kind of material you where getting into or what exactly you were supposed to study in order to pass. Don't be fooled into thinking that this CLEP test is easy which its not. The actual test will be 119-122 questions and you will neeed a good understanding on everything from Louis XIV and the French Revolution to Gorbachev and his exact contributions to the Soviet system of government. You will also need to know what the political map of Europe looked like in each period from 1648 to the present. Yes you can pass this CLEP test but if you've have never taken a CLEP test before you might want to first try something easier such as Principles of Marketing. If you have taken and passed several CLEP tests before then yes you can study for and pass the Western Civilization II CLEP. In as little as ten days before the actual CLEP test you can test yourself each day on the computer with the CBT practice included with the book until you have memorized all of the answers and then read and have a good understanding of the detailed explanations in the back of the book and you will get a passing grade on this CLEP test. REA has done it again with this book and a good understanding of the material in it you can pass the Western Civilization II CLEP test! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent
I was on medical leave and studied this book and the marketing book for about a week.I passed both tests.

5-0 out of 5 stars Worth the money
I bought this book and read some every night for about 2 1/2 weeks and was a little nervous about taking the CLEP - Principles of Management.The proctor mentioned that this exam was very intense and most don't pass it.I didn't leave myself time to review any sample tests at the end of the book and was very happy with the results.I was able to pass the CLEP exam with nothing more than reading this book.Would recommend.

4-0 out of 5 stars Not that difficult
I studied this guide for a couple of hours a day for a week and passed with a 71. I do have a background in management but that didn't help much. I studied a lot of material that did not end up being on the test. It is a good idea to study all of the management theorists but there were not as many questions about them as I expected. I would also recommend studying the terms found in management textbook to fill in some of the gaps in the REA guide (such as total quality management). Focus on the practice tests. Overall, it's a pretty easy test.

5-0 out of 5 stars Thanks
I received my book in time and in great shape.Thanks for an easy and smooth transaction.

5-0 out of 5 stars CLEP Principles of Management
This book was very helpful. The test itself had a lot of common sense questions. Pay attention to the Economists and psychologists such as Fayol, McGregor, Taylor, etc. Use the College Board's CLEP Official Study Guide, 17th Edition it helps. The practice tests will let you know what to brush-up on.I scored a 68 with only one week of part time study. CLEP tests are a great!

Read this thin little book and passed the test.

'nuff said!

2-0 out of 5 stars somewhat satisfied
The material in the book was very good.However, the practice tests were nothing like the real exam.The exam did not have any "all of the above", or "none of the above", options in any of the 100 questions, yet one in every five practice question had that option.
