Guidance received from Varsity Tutors CLEP courses can help you build test-taking skills that can be used throughout your educational future. CLEP tutoring provides you with quality one-on-one exam prep. The instructor assigned to you is familiar with the course material that is covered in the exam. CLEP test prep can help you to review material that you find challenging.
There are various section topics covered in these exams. Those topics include composition and literature, world languages, history and social sciences, science and mathematics, and business. Taking CLEP classes can better prepare you for taking the exams. Your tutor can create customized CLEP prep sessions that can help you specifically with the areas you need more assistance in. You may be more well-versed in composition and literature subjects, but need extra CLEP test prep for the world languages section that cover French, German, and Spanish.
During the CLEP test prep, your tutor uses a variety of techniques to ascertain how well you actually understand the course materials that could show up on the exam. There are some essay portions on this exam. As you continue with the CLEP prep, your tutor can tailor the study sessions for helping you to improve your writing skills if necessary.
Your tutor can help you during CLEP prep by telling you what you need to know for each CLEP test. As an example, here is a breakdown of the periods covered and their weights on the CLEP American Literature exam:
On Exam Day Bring:
- 15% - The Colonial and Early National Period (Beginnings-1830)
- 25% - The Romantic Period (1830-1870)
- 20% - The Period of Realism and Naturalism (1870-1910)
- 25% - The Modernist Period (1910-1945)
- 15% - The Contemporary Period (1945-Present).
Taking the CLEP exams can save you hours of class time and tuition money. If you earned 15 CLEP credits, that could be applied toward your degree. It is estimated by that you'd save $5,000 if you attended an average public 4-year institution. You could possibly save around $17,000 if you attended a private nonprofit school.
Your tutor can create a customized CLEP test prep plan that meets your learning needs and current abilities.
It is important to note that if you have any disabilities, this will be taken into account on exam day. The College Board has made a commitment to ensure that students with disabilities have what they need to take tests. They consider all reasonable requests.
