The Introductory Pychology CLEP study guide did indeed help me pass the test. It was not the only book i read but there was certainly good information. The information is not as detailed in this format as other study guides but it does give you the basics for the test. I recommend reading other test study guides as well if you do not have a background in psychology. There were also a lot of questions that the book did not cover, that is why more then one study guide would be recommended.

This book was great. Each chapter had plenty of details, but they were organized around a few main themes and so they didn't seem so overwhelming like they would in a regular textbook--they all fit together and were easier to remember. I think if I was taking an Intro Psych class instead of the CLEP, I would still want to use this book to help me learn the material.

This is relatively new REA CLEP review subject. It is an indispensable study guide, since it reviews the essentials for the CLEP Introductory Psychology exam, unlike other textbooks which are meant for real lecture college courses. Our library has every CLEP title, and students have expressed positive feedback about REA's subject reviews.

I thought I'd give this book a try after successfully using other REA titles. I found this book to be a great resource and passed the Psychology CLEP with an "A". It only has two practice tests but they are fairly detailed. The information in the text is a little light and sometimes confusing. I had to look at a few other sources to figure out what this book left out, specifically on the structure of the brain and brain stem. All in all I think this is a great CLEP study resource and it is the reason I passed this CLEP. This was my fifth CLEP and I bought all the other books based on customer reviews. This one was new and had no reviews so I took a chance. It paid off. I recommend this book.
