CLEP Information Systems/Computers

[SerenePeach]

Hello,

Has anyone ever tested out of an introductory Computer Literacy class by taking the CLEP exam? The CLEP exam is actually called Information Systems and Computer Applications.

If so, did you find the test hard? How long did you study for it, and what guides/books did you use to study? I just want to hear personal opinions about the test.

I thought it was more straightforward like how to use WORD or Excel, but it's a bit more detailed. You can view some practice questions here: http://www.clepexampracticetests.com/info-systems-comp-apps.html

I need to clep out of one gen ed to start nursing classes in Jan. I was going to do this one in place of intro to computers but I looked at the practice questions and realized it was more involved with networking and programming. I dont know anything abut that. I decided to clep human growth and development instead. I know most of this already. Ive got a few weeks to learn what I am missing. If you take the computers, let me know how it is and I may try it too.
