All you need for the CLEP:

If you're looking for a study guide for the American Government CLEP test, then this book is all you'll need. I read it from cover to cover during the 3-days before my test and passed with flying colors. It covers EVERYTHING you need to know and doesn't leave anything out. I highly recommend it!

EASY CLEP!

This is the only book that you'll need to pass the American Government CLEP! I agree that you should do what it says in the other reviews and they're all good reviews but I would like to add a new slant. After you buy this book go and buy some page flags and mark every single page in the book that has words in BOLD format. Make your very best effort to read this book from cover to cover at least 2 weeks before you take the American Government CLEP. Then use the next 2 weeks before the test date to review all of the items in the book that are in BOLD which are easy to locate because of the page flags. Of course do what it says in the other reviews such as try know and have a good understanding of every Ammendment and Supreme Court Case in the book. After you pass the American Government CLEP give this book with the page flags still in it to somebody else because you won't need it anymore!

It works!

I studied the Cliff Notes American Government book and Microsoft Encarta for 2 weeks and got a 68 on the CLEP. This book has got it all covered for you. That's not to say that all you need to do is read through this book once. American Government is a harder-than-average CLEP (most people score 5-15 points below their usual score with the same amount/intensity of study). The main difficulty lies primarily in the wording of the questions and answers, not necessarily the difficulty of the subject matter itself. They won't just ask a straightforward question with a straightforward answer. You have to be able to pull from your knowledge of several different facts in order to answer one question. Don't go in to the test without all your Amendments and Court Cases memorized. However, this book is tailored to the point, focusing on all the issues you need to know. It can guide your study and help it to be maximally profitable.

Great for CLEP

I used this book to study for the American Government CLEP. I easily passed. I support what the other reviewers have said exactly- this book covers almost everything on the exam but a few questions and it does not contain much extra information that you don't need to know. Easy to read. Easy to understand.

Best CLEP Review

I took another reviewer's recommendation and used this as my source of information for the American Government CLEP. To say the least, this book does indeed cover the examination very thoroughly. The topics covered in this book cover exactly what is on the CLEP examination without any other non-essential information (such as local government). There were maybe a handful of questions (out of 100 total) that were not covered on the examination, but IF you truly know the material in this book, you will be able to pass the exam with no problems. For the price and value, it is simply the best.
