I'm applying to Nursing for next fall. I've gotten credit for some of the pre-requisites already, from a degree I have in nutrition. However, there are still a couple of classes that I need to take. I have to take one semester of English composition, Sociology, an arts/humanities elective, and A&P2. I'm thinking about taking a CLEP test for English, Sociology and Humanities, because I want to free up my schedule a bit next semester. The school I'm applying to does grant credit for CLEP tests. But I am wondering if it would be more useful to take the classes rather than the CLEP test? Has anyone taken these CLEP tests? How difficult are they, and did how did you prepare for them? I've heard that the English CLEP is the hardest. Would I be better off taking this in the classroom?
Thanks :)
