    I am still waiting on my transcript evaluation from COSC but I know that I will need a science.I have done 33 hours by CLEP since Oct., but am having trouble with biology.
    Has anyone taken the biology and natural science CLEP? I am just wondering which one is the most difficult.

    I didn't take biology test, but I am pretty sure Natural Science exam is much easier because it's much more general.
    Here is some statistical data on passing rates for CLEP:

    http://www.arguard.org/webportal/Education/docs/clep.doc

    Biology - 26% and Natural Sciences - 68%.
    I did a mock test for NS and got 65% without any preparation.

    My advice - Get "Prinseton Review Cracking CLEP" .

    Hi,
    I took Clep Bio this week and got 70.

    I think it wanst that difficult...if u have studied the topics listed in the syllabus.

    I studied from the BIO Problem solvers and Ap guides and as I had time took one month to prepare.

    Hope this helps.
    Bye.

    CLEP Nat Sci

    I used the REA Guide to cracking clep and knocked out Natural science in 4 weeks start to finish. Not a hard test, but very broad.I'd recommend over biology unless you have prior background in biology.
