CLEP Sociology

Nursing Students Online Learning

Published

Hello gals! I have the CLEP exam this next Friday, March 6th for Sociology. I am getting kinda nervous because the grading seems kinda crazy and I feel sometimes like it's so simple but yet I feel so dumb. Any tips for passing this exam? It's my first of my general ED requirements through Excelsior.

Thank you!

Hi Kristina!

I think this is a really good one to start with. It's a relatively easy exam. I studied for probably 2 days for this. It's mostly stuff you've heard about in day to day life. I used a website called instantcert.com for this. It's $20 a month for unlimited access to study questions on lots of the CLEP and DSST exams.

Hang in there! :hngon:

I just came back from Sociology clep. Passed it also; should have taken it sooner if I'd know it wouldn't be so hard.

What did you use to study? I have so much info. Flashcard exchange,TCN,and some notes that someone on a forum sent me. I can't start studying until next week. Had minor eye surgery,so can't stress the eyes too much. I would like to test my March27th, so I can be CPNE eligible. If I had not had that eye surgery...I would have more already down. Thanks, and congrats on passing. Traci

I used instantcert and a sociology text book. The exam is pretty straight forward.
