 Good for Clep Exam December 11, 2004

21 out of 21 found this review helpful
This book is all you need to pass the clep Exam. The book has a little bit of too much information than you actually need for the exam. There are 26 chapters in the book, but all you need to study is 20 chapters. You can select those chapters that u need to read by going to Cleps website (www.collegeboard.com) and look at the outline of the exam.
I took the exam recently and got a score of 70. I studied for one week 10 hours/day for the test. 80% of the questions were on contract and breach of contract. The rest were a mixture of questions. The test contained a lot of scenario questions pertaining mostly to contracts.
Remember to study the "terms" at the end of each chapter, study the "glossary" section and "You should remember" in each chapter and questions and answers in each chapter and you should be good to go.
If u need more pointers shoot me an email at simple6000@yahoo.com
Great study guide or primer December 15, 2001

In addition to being an excellent resource for small business owners, this book is recommended as a preparation for the CLEP Business Law examination (3 lower-level college credits) by a number of people. I second that opinion, especially if you are looking to hit the higher percentiles. This isn't a dry academic text, but an easy to read text that covers the basics with a minimum of handholding. Hardwicke presents the critical information that managers need to know, in a down to earth book. Highly recommended for CLEP or DANTES candidates.

I used this as study material for the Business Law CLEP#20. Fantastic resource. Very easy read, end of chapter questions and cases. If your looking to CLEP Business Law, this makes it easy. I think it will also make a great resource for the DANTES Business Law II.
Great desk reference AND worked for CLEP and Dantes exams! January 17, 2002

I bought this book to study for the CLEP Business Law I exam. I realized I could also use it for the Dantes Business Law II exam. I passed both, and am keeping it for a handy desk reference. Nicely organized, good examples, and easy to read.
GREAT CLEP AND DANTES PREP March 8, 2005

I passed both the CLEP BL1 and Dantes BL2 by studying this resource. My scores on both were 71. You should not need any other materials to supplement, but make sure you know the content well. The tests are quite difficult, especially the Dantes. Buy this book, study for a week or two, and you should be ready to pass both.
