The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) gives college students the opportunity to earn valuable college credits by passing primarily multiple choice CLEP exams. The following tips will help SpeedyPrep students on the big day when they take their CLEP exam and better understand the overall process.
5 Tips To Guarantee A High Score On Your CLEP Exam Using The SpeedyPrep CLEP prep system
1.
Study One Subject at a Time! As you are preparing for your CLEP exam, study one subcategory of one subject at a time (an example of a subcategory is Music if you were studying for the Humanities CLEP exam). This will cause you to memorize the material faster and progress through the overall subject at a quicker pace.
2.
Study each question. The questions you are studying are designed to provide you with the knowledge base you need to pass the actual CLEP exam. These ARE NOT actual CLEP exam questions! Since this is true, the questions you will see on the actual CLEP exam may come from the question, the answer, or the explanation. It is important to study the question, the answer and the explanation!
3.
Study right before taking your test! When you are within five days of your actual CLEP exam, complete each sub-category and the overall course. If you follow these instructions, all of the material will be fresh on your mind when you take the CLEP exam.
4.
Do not attempt to take your CLEP exam until your course progress bar is at least 95%! This is the number one reason SpeedyPrep students fail their CLEP exam. The SpeedyPrep CLEP prep system is designed to guarantee a passing score for those who complete the CLEP prep course! The SpeedyPrep CLEP prep system currently has over a 99% pass rate for students who complete their CLEP prep course!

Review the general test taking tips below the day before you take your exam.
Top Ten CLEP Exam Multiple Choice Tips:
1.
Read each question completely and carefully. Many students have scored lower than their potential on a CLEP exam due to misreading a question.
2.
Read the question completely before looking at the possible answers. If you know the answer just from reading the question, most likely you are correct!
3.
Answer the easy questions first. If a question on the CLEP exam looks difficult, mark it and move on.
4.
Do not spend too much time on one question. A good rule of thumb is don’t spend longer than one minute on a single question during your CLEP exam.
5.
Don’t be a sucker for a “trick” question. Sometimes CLEP exam questions may have an obvious inconsistency that makes it easy to rule out one or several of the possible answers. (For example: A CLEP exam question asks how hot a liquid is going to become and one of the answers is in inches. Obviously the answer could not be measured in inches—it must be measured in degrees.
6.
Do not stress out over difficult questions. Read the question carefully and eliminate as many of the answers as possible. This will increase your chances of a correct answer on the question.
7.
Answer every question on the CLEP exam even if you do not know the answer. The College Board states on their website that they do not penalize for incorrect answers!
8.
Use extra time to improve your score! If you finish your CLEP exam with time remaining read each question a second time, re-working any problems, and making sure each and every question has an answer marked.
9.
The night before your CLEP exam. . . RELAX. You earned it! Make sure to get at least 8 hours of sleep and eat a healthy breakfast before your CLEP exam.
10.
Smile when you look at the high score you achieved on your CLEP exam! You saved time and money and are closer to your college degree with each passed CLEP exam!!!
