This book is SUPERB., July 13, 2006 By Mrs. Night Owl
Took the CLEP exam after studying this book and it was a breeze. I scored a 73.
This book was very comprehensive and if you take the time to really familiarize yourself with the material you should do well on the test.
I supplemented the book with wikipedia.com and flashcard testing from instantcert.com.
Another "A", April 13, 2005 By RoBo
I thought I'd give this book a try after successfully using other REA titles. I found this book to be a great resource and passed the Psychology CLEP with an "A". It only has two practice tests but they are fairly detailed. The information in the text is a little light and sometimes confusing. I had to look at a few other sources to figure out what this book left out, specifically on the structure of the brain and brain stem. All in all I think this is a great CLEP study resource and it is the reason I passed this CLEP. This was my fifth CLEP and I bought all the other books based on customer reviews. This one was new and had no reviews so I took a chance. It paid off. I recommend this book.

Passed the CLEP on 8/2/06 with a 75! This book does NOT cover everything you'll find on the exam. It DOES condense into less than 100 easy to read pages enough info to pass the exam. (I had the same experience with REA's CLEP for biology-there was a lot on the CLEP exam the REA book didn't cover, but I still scored a 65 by really knowing the content of the book.)
I wasn't confident about my psych knowledge so I also used collegeboard.com and instacert for the CLEP Intro to Psych. These sites helped me score higher, but I still found questions on the CLEP that also were not found in these sources.
My advice--be thorough with your study of the REA book--and pass the CLEP!
