How to Study for the Introductory CLEP
As you can see this exam covers a lot of areas but only briefly in passing. This means that your best bet is to try and figure out only the most popular themes in each group and study them. So for the history group make sure you know who Freud is. For the disorder group find out some of the more well known disorders.
