Put in your test date and the planner spreads 22 short lessons over the days you have, across all five CLEP groups: history and social sciences, composition and literature, science and math, business, and world languages. You’ll only sit one exam at a time, so skim the groups you don’t need and give those days to your own exam’s outline. The last two days are for our 20 practice questions and a redo of the ones you missed.
Pick the date of your test and how long you can study each day. You’ll get a plan that takes you right up to the test.
How should you study for a CLEP exam?
- Look up the score your college wants for your exam. It may be higher than 50.
- Open your exam’s page on College Board’s site and list its areas from biggest to smallest.
- Try the free sample questions for that exam to find your gaps.
- Fill the gaps, biggest areas first, with a course, a textbook or the free resources College Board lists for your subject.
- Finish with timed practice at the real exam’s length.
Study materials for CLEP exams
The free route is College Board’s outline and sample questions plus a Modern States course. The paid official guides and app add more practice questions. Both are compared on the prep page.
