Computer-based Scoring:
CLEP computer-based (CBT) exams are scored without a penalty for incorrect guessing.
The raw score--the number of correct responses--is translated into a scaled score.
The scaled scores for CLEP CBT are reported in a range from 20 to 80.
At Ferris, candidates taking the Calculus exam earn credit for a score of 50 or
