I just passed the Social Sciences and History CLEP with a 64. I studied for about 2 weeks, 1-2 hours a day. The practice tests that REA gives with this book are superb. They mimic the actual test questions extremely well in content and language. The explanations to the answers are in-depth and insightful into how the test questions are constructed on the actual CLEP. However, the actual review sections on the history sections read like a history book. There are a couple paragraphs on this, a couple on that, and it is extremely difficult to retain any of the information in this format. I purchased InstaCert's flash card system, a $10 practice test from [...] and googled free US History flash cards and reviewed them in addition to using the REA study book. I do not feel the REA text book (on it's own) will adequately prepare you for a 6 credit course test in this many course subjects. However, the sections on psychology, sociology, geography, etc. were adequate for review solely with the REA book.
This book is GREAT for a reference but always double check other factors. For an example, Anthropology. This subject was not covered in depth but that is okay. This course is a mile long and inch deep (which for some can be a pain the rear.) However, I would not just get the book for its core content but also for the testing software. This helps a lot and I found it to be pretty close to the test.
This book is okay, but is NOT very in depth in terms of covering all of the content in detail covered on the CLEP.The practice exam questions on the CD had a mixture of questions similar to those that appear on the actual exam, and those that are somewhat bizarre and not completely representative of actual question types on the real exam.However, it is a decent book as a study aid.In addition to this book, I used the REA CLEP book and completed the online College Board CLEP sample questions, studying for about two weeks, and received a 54 on the CLEP. I am also not the best when it comes to history and studied very diligently for this exam.This exam is fairly difficult due to the amount of information covered, and another study source is required in addition to this book to attain a good score on the exam. This book is okay, but is NOT very in depth in terms of covering all of the content in detail covered on the CLEP.In addition to this book, I used the Comex CLEP book and completed the online College Board CLEP sample questions, studying for about two weeks, and received a 54 on the CLEP.

I used this book for my test prep for the CLEP Social Science and History test. With this book, and the help of the Accelerate University program, I was able to pass my test in just 3 days! It is an excellent resource and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to pass the CLEP Social Science and History test!
Used this book and passed my CLEP. This was worth the money and wish I would have purchased this several semesters ago.
I thought I could study this book and be able to clep out of the class. But this is really just letting you know what areas you need to be up on to be able to pass the test. All the information is not in the book itself.
this book definitely covers everything on the test. It's way overkill, but if you somehow memorized all this, you would have no problems. Check out a CLEP community beforehand.
I like both the DVD and paper format for studying. It beats using just an online study aid.I would very much recommend it to anyone studying for this exam.
