Cracking the CLEP

by The Princeton Review

Acing the CLEP is very different from getting straight A's in school, so The Princeton Review doesn't try to teach you everything there is to know about every subject -- only the techniques that you need to score higher on the CLEP. Cracking the CLEP focuses on the most popular CLEP subject tests, including English Composition, College Mathematics, Humanities, Social Sciences, and Natural Sciences. This fully updated edition of Cracking the CLEP also includes 5 full-length sample exams. The questions on these tests are exactly like those on real CLEP exams, and there are complete explanations for every solution in the book.

Cracking the CLEP, 5th Edition will teach you how to

- 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 the algebra problems by "plugging in" numbers in place of letters
- Ace the Social and Natural Science exams by tailoring your review to the tests

[Victoria · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is soo helpful ! It comes with five practice C.L.E.P tests inside , one for each major subject. It is very plainly and helpfully written it tells you just what you need to know. It has a diagram for each test showing how it breaks up.

For example on the Humanities test :
The arts 50%
Visual arts 20%
painting 5% and so on . So far I have only taken one test out of here ,but I was very impressed with it .
