eLearning for CLEP Professor for CLEP and AP Chemistry

I highly recommend DIVE as well with the BJU text (although you can use Abeka, Apologia or the Internet) for Chemistry AP, Biology CLEP and Physics AP. We followed up with CLEP Professor from Dr. Shormann also. He gets the AP and CLEP released exams to make this. My kids said some of the same questions were on the exam!

If you are ever thinking about taking a Chemistry CLEP, AP or other sort of test, you should check this out. The guy walks you through everything you need to study to do well on the exams.

When the CLEP administrator at my institution informed me that no one he had ever given the chemistry CLEP to had passed, I decided to take the preparation very seriously. I began researching how other people had passed the test and ordered several materials. After 8+ years of no chemistry, my chemistry knowledge was not very good, so I had to prepare more than someone who just finished a high school chem or college intro chem course. If you are starting from scratch or just want to make sure you pass this test, then this is what I would recommend. Begin with the Wiley, "Chemistry Concepts and Problems: A Self Teaching Guide." This book is written in a continuous question and answer format that reviews and tests your knowledge to build a strong foundation of chemistry knowledge and problem solving. Then simultaneously study REA's "CLEP Chemistry," by Peel (I strongly recommend getting the book and CD with two practice tests included) with the Chemistry CLEP Professor software. You will find the REA book to be very summarized. I bought that first and felt like I needed more help. I found the CLEP Professor and gave it a try. My comprehension and retention immediately began skyrocketing, in addition to my practice test scores! The CLEP Professor follows the exact format and order of information of the book, but fills in a lot of the gaps. You may opt to purchase a general chemistry textbook to look up additional information on specific questions, but I would not recommend studying it alone to pass. There is too much information not focused for the CLEP exam that will make you forget what you need to know. You can also research anything you need to know more about online making the textbook unnecessary. I would recommend at least one month to go through these three materials. You should plan to spend about two weeks on the Wiley Self Study and two weeks on the CLEP professor and REA book together. That will give you 6 practice tests to work on. I recommend taking one practice test while you are studying the last two materials every other day. This will show you what you are learning and what you need to learn. Spend one month and about a total of $150 and you can save two semesters of time and about $2000. You should pass easily if you follow the three steps of this program: 1-Wiley Self-Teaching Guide, 2-CLEP Professor and REA CLEP Chemistry, 3-Take practice tests and look up material you are unfamiliar with. I hope you do well.

I took the DIVE Chemistry e-course then used CLEP Professor to prepare for the AP and CLEP exams. CLEP Professor took the guesswork out of studying. It explained the material well and helped me get the overall picture of chemistry in a thorough and comprehensive manner. The REA Chemistry Crash Course was also a helpful resource, but CLEP Professor was by far the main tool I used. Although I don't know my AP score yet, I'm pleased to report that I received a 70 on the CLEP exam (which, if you're not familiar with CLEP scoring, is a fairly high score). I would definitely recommend CLEP Professor to anyone studying for the Chemistry AP or CLEP exams.
