DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS?
Top CLEP Human Growth and Development FAQs
- The Human Growth and Development CLEP exam covers topics usually taught during a one-semester beginning course in human development or developmental psychology. The ratio of topics to content representation on the exam, according to The College Board, is listed below:
- Theoretical Perspectives: 10%
- Research Strategies and Methodology: 6%
- Biological Development Throughout the Life Span: 12%
- Perceptual Development Throughout the Life Span: 6%
- Cognitive Development Throughout the Life Span: 12%
- Language Development: 8%
- Intelligence Throughout the Life Span: 6%
- Social Development Throughout the Life Span: 12%
- Family, Home, and Society Throughout the Life Span: 8%

- Schooling, Work, and Interventions: 6%

- If you’ve taken a beginner course in human development or developmental psychology, the Human Growth and Development CLEP is a great opportunity to earn college credit. By taking CLEP exams, you can apply prior or current knowledge to get a head start on your higher education pathway, enhance your degree, and save time and money on courses. Students can take various exams on entry-level collegiate topics to bypass these courses in college or university. Does this sound familiar? That may be because many students take CLEP tests with DSST tests. While both offer college credit, CLEP tests offer testing in mainstream subjects, while DSST test subjects are more specialized.
- The Human Growth and Development CLEP exam consists of 90 questions to be answered in 90 minutes.
- Each college and university has its own CLEP policy, and each exam is weighed differently. Still, the American Council on Education (ACE) recommends that schools award 3 semester hours of college credit for a score of 50 or higher on the Human Growth and Development CLEP exam.
- A scaled score, based on multiple-choice questions and essay scores, ranges from 20 to 80. Based on this score, the student earns an A, B, C, or D. The letter grade is applied to your college course equivalent.
- A score of 50 on the Human Growth and Development CLEP exam, the equivalent of a course grade of C, will give you three credits.
- Those who have taken a beginning course in human development or developmental psychology or are familiar with its content are perfect candidates for the Human Growth and Development CLEP exam. Students seeking college credit are encouraged to take CLEP exams. Home-schoolers, military personnel, and adult learners are typical CLEP test takers, but exams are also open to college and high school students. CLEP exams are helpful for students seeking higher education outside of the traditional classroom.
- There is no penalty for wrong guesses on the CLEP exam. Using your best educated guess is better than leaving an answer blank.
- CLEP exams test you on the equivalent of an entire college semester’s curriculum in approximately 90 minutes. While the idea is to test you on material you are very familiar with, some practice on the content and the test itself is in order as a satisfactory score earns you the college credit you’re after. While everyone is different, Peterson’s recommends at least 6 weeks of preparation for test day.
- Peterson’s offers subscribers three full-length Human Growth and Development CLEP practice tests. You can also access our Human Growth and Development CLEP Study Guide which provides a review of concepts presented on the exam and tips for how to prepare for the exam.
- Like all CLEP exams, the Human Growth and Development CLEP is administered online through the College Board. Visit the College Board website for step-by-step instructions on how to register for the exam online.
