Taking CLEP for things not available in AP?

Test Preparation

<p>I’m looking at the Business CLEPs in im high school and these are not available in AP. Will these help in college admissions? I will probably do something with business and pre-med. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>CLEP exams will have no bearing on admissions as a passing score will either allow you to earn credit or be placed out of a class (allowing you to take more in-depth coursework). If you know what universities you plan to apply to, check out their CLEP policy before anything else. I would suggest checking with a dean in the business college to see if they would have a problem with you taking a CLEP business exam if your major is in business. Always, always, always check with the college as each one is permitted to establish their own policy, even by department.</p>

<p>While calling the university, you might also ask if they have a policy of accepting the DSST (also called DANTES) exams as this testing program also has a number of business exams. If you haven’t heard of them, check them out ([DSST</a> | Get College Credit](<a href=“http://www.getcollegecredit.com%5DDSST”>http://www.getcollegecredit.com)).</p>
