Study Resources for CLEP

Free Online Resources Designed to Refresh Your Knowledge

When you are preparing for your CLEP exam, we suggest consulting textbooks and other materials used in the comparable college course. Many textbooks offer companion websites that provide additional information and interactive features. There are also a number of free and low-cost resources available online.

First, read the CLEP exam description carefully, and match the knowledge and skills required to any free course or study content.

These resources, compiled by CLEP test development committee and staff members, may help you study for your exam. However, none of these sources are designed specifically to provide preparation for a CLEP exam. The College Board has no control over their content and cannot vouch for accuracy.
