 Good Product that will help April 1, 2007
The CLEP Western Civilization II book is a significantly summarized version of events from 1648 to present. Containing just 136 pages of reading material, it does offer two practice exams at the end containing 240 questions. I've always had an interest in history and possess a fair knowledge of events and time-lines. The CLEP test was very difficult; I received a barely passing grade of 54. I actually thought for sure I failed, due to frequent guessing! I Recommend this summary be read first, then go on to another textbook for supplemental information.
 CLEP Western Civ. II July 21, 2006
This book was very helpful. I also watch a lot of the History Channel! Use the College Board's CLEP Official Study Guide, 17th Edition it helps. The practice tests will let you know what to brush-up on. I scored a 63.
Best thing out there , yet not enough. April 25, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are planning to take this exam, make sure you have a solid text book as your primary means of preparation. Unlike most REA books, this book alone WILL NOT provide you with enough info to pass the exam. I took the CLEP Western Civilization exam this morning and even though I passed, I have to say that this is a difficult exam. I recommend "Western Civilization : Volume II: Since 1500 (with InfoTrac) (Paperback)
by Jackson J. Spielvogel (in addition to the REA book) also, The prep questions included with this book ( while somewhat helpfull) were misleading in that the actual test questions were much more complex than the ones provided in the book.
