    I "Clep"ped out 96 hours toward my Bachelor's Degree. That included a bunch of the "Nursing Science" courses. If you have the knowledge, I see no reason to have to sit through a class, not if you can pass the CLEP tests. Especially if your college takes CLEP credits. Go for it.

    I took the English Comp II Clep a few years ago and it was awful. Turned out to be all poetry interpretation!! Passed it but by the skin of my teeth. Luckily it didn't count towards my GPA. Just be aware that the English Comp I and English Comp II in NJ are very different tests.

    I CLEPed College COmp I&II. Piece of cake. I didn't use a study guide for it.

    Other subjects I might have. I don't remember anything about poetry in it. It was just a lot of fluff as far as I was concerned.
