    I passed my clep! For anyone who is taking college composition modular: the first 9 questions are like editing a sentence, and then it gives you maybe 4-5 passages to edit, then it go into reading and using sources (such as citations), then senteces and paragraphs again. There are 90 questions and you can mark your unfamiliar question so you can go back and see. Good luck!!

I also recommend the natural science video provided by this source if planning on taking that clep as I used it as well to pass that exam.

    Just passed my clep test. This video was a great help! I highly advise watching this video a few times and using the college prep test study guides, if you have them readily available to you, before the test. I only studied for 6 hours before the test and I honestly barely passed but that’s because I have severe test anxiety when it comes to timed tests and I answered the last 20 questions without even really reading them because I would’ve ran out of time. So if you’re good at skim reading and taking standardized test, with a few hours of studying you will pass for sure.
