College Level Examination Program

College Level Examinations and Credit ( 2/9/2012)

SCORING: The American Council on Education (ACE) has developed a recommended credit-granting score and number of semester hours of credit for each CLEP exam. VWC follows these recommendations and requires a minimum percentile score of 50, with the exception of French, German and Spanish 4-semester credit exams which have a higher score. (See below.)

Scores are computed by granting one point for each correct answer on a test. The resulting figure, called the formula score, is converted to a scaled score between 20 and 80. Since CLEP testing is computer-based, points will not be deducted for wrong or skipped answers. This means that you should do your best to supply an answer for each question on a CLEP exam.
