4-0 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive overview
Overall this book really helped me study for the exam quickly.It was organized well and taught each subject in a short and simple way.There were plenty of examples and I loved the practice problems at the end of each chapter.It was missing a few topics however such as range, the symbols ( and [ in relation to a number line, and histograms.Also, it could use a fuller glossary and needs an index at the end.Overall it was a huge help and I would highly recommend it.It took my exam yesterday and passed and only used this book as my primary study aid.

5-0 out of 5 stars SOOO HAPPY!! I passed!!!!
I have been out of Math classes for quite sometime.The only thing standing between me and my BS Degree was the Clep College Mathematics test.I bought this book and I was very thankful I did.Not only did it cover all the areas on my test, it gave me practice problems with answers and explanation of how they got to that answer.It was a very helpful book and I highly recommend it. Use this book combined with the Online Clep practice tests and you should have no problem passing the test.

4-0 out of 5 stars CLEP Math Book Review
It was well written, easy to understand, and informative.It can be used over and over, for the CLEP, other tests and personal review. ... Read more

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).
5-0 out of 5 stars Great study guide
These guides are fabulous! Each gives just enough information to pass the test. I like the practice tests, they really help ensure you know the material. They are well written and really pretty interesting.I guess they would also be a great short introduction to the subject. I've used sociology and US history both are highly recommended. With almost no pre-requisit knowelge you could study these books and pass, you do need to know the information in here though, since the test will have stuff that the REA guide doesn't cover, but these are enough to pass if you know it well. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars CLEP This - Excelsior Students!!
This book by far is a MUST HAVE if you want to PASS the Humanities CLEP exam.This book offers a broader yet pinpoint review of the material covered on the actual exam than the REA book.I passed with a 64.GET THIS BOOK!!!!

1-0 out of 5 stars Not one question was on the test
I expected to see at least one reviewed question on the test, but did not see any.I passed with a 52, but it was not because of this book.Other study guides helped somewhat.I'm just glad that it's over!!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Study Guide!!
I used this study guide along with the CLEP Success book to sstudy for the Humanities CLEP test. The information provided in both books and the sample test questions definitely helped me to pass this test. I studied for a week solid and passed the test with a high score. ... Read more

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".3-0 out of 5 stars This book is good but not enough.
This book will help prepare for the exam but it is not enough to pass the test.I was able to pass because I also took the History I, Intro to Sociology, American Government, and General Humanities CLEPS.Read more

FYI - this book only has example test questions in it (along with the answers).
4-0 out of 5 stars This book is CRITICAL!!!!!!!
If you can pass at least half the questions in this book you are good.It is like being able to take the actual test.This book was made for people who study using the textbook only instead of people who study using REA CLEP guides or something like that.But this book still is critical.
5-0 out of 5 stars Study Guide, Must Have!
This study guide or rather a group of sample questions is extreamly helpful in preparing for ALL the CLEP tests. I have taken 7 so far and will be taking 3 more. I average around 64 on all of them so far. The questions are typical of what is on the tests. These are the same people that wrote the CLEP tests! Take the tests, do a little research, ie. Library or online to find the correct answers on the ones you don't know. The questions on the test sometimes are exactly the same as in the book. Most of the time they just asked the same question in a different way. Good Luck. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Parent of Student
Purchased this book because my daughter has had great success with the biology, english, and literature rea clep books. This book contained multiple errors that needless confused by daughter. I asked for an errata twice from the publisher but my requests were ignored. After studying this book my daughter received a 57 on the Algebra CLEP exam. At most schools this would have been high enough to receive credit, however her University required a score of 60 to receive credit. One area she found that the book did not cover as completely as needed was in factoring/simplifying polynomials and fractions based on polynomials. If you need a high score to receive credit (above 57) I would not recommend this book.

3-0 out of 5 stars Not complete...
I found the information here helpful but the instructional parts and math review were not very good if you are not comfortable with algebra already.There were some key ideas and concepts that were not covered.I did not feel adequately prepared to take the CLEP after using this book, although I didn't give it very much time to "sink in", and ended up taking Algebra over the internet at a local college. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars A great help.
I studied with this book for 2-3 weeks before the test and got a 71 out of 80.However, I was already pretty well versed in the arts.I would suggest visiting a large museum before taking the test for help with art recognition.I would also recommend memorizing the major works of the authors in the appendix.If you are not well read, the test is ver difficult.I read the sparknotes for all of the major works I had not already read before the test as well.Make flashcards.

5-0 out of 5 stars EXCELSIOR STUDENTS YOU CAN DO THIS!
REA has done again on December 21, 2005 when they came out with this stand alone CLEP Humanties study guide! Unlike most reviewers I have taken this CLEP test several times. But don't be scared off by this fact-when I first took the CLEP Humanities test it was for a law school and at the time there was no computer or REA study guide at the time and I did awful-I got a 380 which at the time was really bad. Of course back then the non-CBT test went a lot slower and you had a quarter point subtracted from your final score for every wrong answer so you spent a lot more of your test time agonizing as there was no possible reward for guessing with out at least looking the question over thourougly. To pass the Humanities CLEP test you will need to take the sample test every day for at least a month until you have memorized the material but in order to push yourself over the top you will at the very least need to purchase College Boards official study guide for the CLEP exams and with pencil and paper test yourself with the 50 or so questions in the humanities sample exam until you have memorized the material in that book as well. You will need both books to pass this CLEP exam-that is unless of course you have a magnificent knowledge of humanities from previous college coursework. If you have never taken a CLEP test before I strongly recommend that you take a much easier CLEP test first such as Principles of Marketing.

4-0 out of 5 stars Advanced CLEP test, be careful without background knowledge
This review volume was quite useful. I looked at everything Amazon was offering (from the collections with about 50 pgs. specific to the CLEP to full Humanities volumes like this), the reviews LAPL had in circulation, and some used book stores' offerings. I settled on this book and another called Mastering the CLEP (both written recently and I assumed would give me the most update scenarios for questions and review examinations).

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book for CLEP test preparation
It definately helped me improve my score and it won't bore you to death.It's very concise, so you might need other sources. Wikipedia or answers.com are great for clarifying details, and if you've got an American History book to refer to as you read, it's helpful. Refering to a list of presidents as you read can help a lot too. You need at least a week to prepare for the test.I spent 2 or 3 full days cramimg...not recommended.

5-0 out of 5 stars FOR LOVERS OF HISTORY, THIS BOOK ALONE IS ENOUGH TO PASS.
This book is a "MUST HAVE" for any one taking the Amer history I CLEP test.
4-0 out of 5 stars The book is helpfulbut u need more than this to get through
I read REA history for a month and took the exam to get 70(though i was expecting more).I want to emphasize that you need more than this book to score good. I went through the AP history quiz sites. One thing that I wanted to mention is that the paper had a lot of questions on religion as in Baptist, methodist , presbyterian church which are not covered in this book at all. Also, you need to be familiar with terms like stono rebellion . The exam actually tests more than your basic knowledge, it checks whether u have a thorough understanding of the events and if you can correlate them. So this book helps to get the basic idea but dont count on just this book to score good.

2-0 out of 5 stars CD test scores inaccurate
The CD was only helpful as a test-taking practice tool. The scores were inaccurate and therefore gave a false indication of the overall performance. Use the book to review test results as this is the only way you will know how you did.

5-0 out of 5 stars REA's prep books are excellent!

I used this book to study for the CLEP and passed easily today!I did not use any other study guides and this helped me feel very confident for this exam.I have taken many CLEP exams and used REA study guides to pass all of them.Buy this today if you want to pass this exam!

4-0 out of 5 stars Great book!
Really good book...I didn't know I had to take a CLEP until a week before the exam, so I rushed out and grabbed this book. I studied it for about 2 hours a day for 5 days, as well as did questions in the back and in the official CLEP study guide. I took the exam this morning and passed. It has everything you need to know for the exam =)

Just scored 73/80 after studying 5 days total.No prior knowledge of psychology (well, I took it in HS 16 yrs ago).
5-0 out of 5 stars Just read it and pass, but take the Intro to Psych exam first.
I studied this book over the past few days and passed the exam today with a 69/80 (50 is passing). It covers almost everything on the exam and it's a quick and easy read. I would definitely recommend buying the Intro to Psych book and taking that exam first because this exam builds upon many of the same topics. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Good, but not great for CLEP prep
This book is OK, but not nearly as good as the other REA CLEP Prep books.The authors did something odd in this one - it's as if they were writing it as a study guide or to accompany a class.There were many references to "according to your professor's specifications" and "professors ... will demand."Who cares about professors?!!!I'm studying for an exam, not trying to do better in a class.
4-0 out of 5 stars Happy with this book!
This book was my only prep for the CLEP Eng Comp WITH ESSAY.(My school requires the essay.)I read the info once, skanned it a second time, and did only 2 of the practice tests.
5-0 out of 5 stars This book will help you get CLEP credit

4-0 out of 5 stars Great study guide
Well written and informative.I studied for about a month, a little bit each day, and scored a 69 (heh, heh) in September of 06.I used only this guide, although I did look up Maslow's hierarchy of needs which wasn't included and was referenced on the test.I would definitely recommend this guide.I hope their Biology guide is as comprehensive because that's next.
4-0 out of 5 stars Clep Intro Psychology
I had to take this exam to place out of intro psych, and I had never taken a psych class before.I used this book as my primary study source.I supplemented the information in it with the Barron's AP psychology review book because the clep book appears to be reasonably thorough but it could definitely use some extra stuff.
4-0 out of 5 stars Another quality product...
This was my 5th CLEP and it was the toughest of them all. (Sociology, Marketing, Management, and Macroeconomics were the others). That being said, this guide is all you really need to pass. If you want to get say over a 70 then you should probably supplement it with other materials, but if just passing is good enough for you, then this is your book. I studied it for 9 days, took both tests, and pulled a 61. Good enough for me. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars I passed so I guess it's good.
I didn't follow the timelines they give in the book for studying.I only gave myself about a week to get through it.I especially liked the practice tests on the CD.They gave me a much better feel of the actual test than the paper answer sheets you get in other books.I didn't study anything else and got a 72 so I'm now a big fan of the REA CLEP series.

4-0 out of 5 stars Happy with this book
I passed the CLEP biology on 6/26/06 with a 65.My husband got a 70.You need to really know what's in the book because about 1/3 of what I found on the exam wasn't covered in this book.I read the book twice, took the 3 exams, did some extra study (memorization of things like stages of meiosis and DNA replication), and took the test in 4 days.WOW!Am I pleased!
2-0 out of 5 stars Is this Book Outdated, or is that just me?
I studied the book and took the three review tests in the back of the back twice. Though I passed the CLEP, there was probably about one third of the information on the actual test that was not in the book, anywhere.Fortunately for me, much of it I knew about and was able to answer the questions.I would say get this book, but get another one if you can that covers these other subjects. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Good Stuff
I went over this guide for like 10 days before my exam. And after having took it, I can say that with the exception of the bold printed literary term section, the first 72 pages of the book are worthless. That being said the practice tests are very helpful. I only took the first practice test and scored a 54 on it so I scheduled the clep and got a 64. A word of warning on the actual CLEP, pay close attention to the time, I lost track and had to guess on more than a few questions. Overall this test is very doable, and a great way to knock 6cr out of your way.

1-0 out of 5 stars Not a good book
I thought that this book was going to help me prepare for the Clep test well it helped some. I thought the tests in the book were much easier than the actually test. I didn't pass the test. Do not expect by reading this book you will be prepared for the actually test because you won't be. The actual test is much harder than the sample exams. Some of the vocab in the book did help but overall don't waste your money on this book.

5-0 out of 5 stars Helped me pass with a 77/80!
I highly recommend this book.I studied for 2-3 weeks before I took the CLEP and I got a 77.The book's CD had great practice tests.They were actually a little harder than the real test. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Humanities and Natural Science CLEP's
Stop looking "THIS IS THE BOOK"!!I took both of these exams within one month and passed both with more than enough room to spare.Alot of questions in this book are ACTUAL questions on the CLEP exams.Also study the answer explanations as they also present themselves in question form on the CLEP.This book was my main study guide (and happy I did) - I also used Petersons and REA but found that the questions on their practice tests were much more difficult and deeper than those on the CLEP.
5-0 out of 5 stars Great help!!!!
I cannot encourage you enough to take the CLEP test.Cracking the CLEP is a great resource to help you do so.What makes this book great is that before the book's practice test, there is a section that tells the main concepts that are going to be on the test (which they will be).The book gives test-taking tips at the very beginning of the book which are very good.I passed the general mathematics test with a score of 61, the English composition test with a 61, and the natural science with a 64.You only need a 50 to pass.(Roughly, on the tests I got 2/3 of the questions right ... you only need to get roughly 1/2 to get a 50 which a passing score).
5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome!
I purchased most of the available CLEP study guides; don't waste your time on any but this one. It easily added >100 points to my English w/essay CLEP. The advice was specific, on-target and well-written. Other study guides were nearly incomprehensible.

4-0 out of 5 stars Clep Intro to Sociology
I'm thankful I bought this book.The real test had many of the same questions that the book had listed.It was a great addition to my other guides. I think anyone who wants that extra info for a test should always get as many resources as possible....and this is a don't miss!

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book,CD is a must have
I'd actually give this book 4 stars because some topics, like population were missing, and were on the exam.However, I gave it a 5 star due to the CD; the ability to take the practice tests over and over and mark the questions I didn't fully understand and review the ones I got wrong was great.
3-0 out of 5 stars I hate it- I love it!!

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.
