Build revision, rhetoric, source-use, argument, and synthesis skills while preparing Proctortrack remote-testing requirements if you choose the at-home CLEP option.
HiraEdu helps CLEP College Composition candidates prepare for the full current format: 50 multiple-choice questions in 55 minutes, two mandatory typed essays in 70 minutes, a 30-minute argument essay, a 40-minute source-synthesis essay, delayed score release after faculty scoring, ACE credit-policy checks, My CLEP registration, Proctortrack onboarding, Windows and Chrome setup, ETS Online Test app, valid ID, room rules, keyboard readiness, and smartphone second-camera setup.
College Composition preparation needs both objective writing-skills review and timed typed essay practice because the essay score is weighted equally with the multiple-choice score.
College Board says College Composition has 50 multiple-choice questions in 55 minutes plus two mandatory typed essays in 70 minutes.
The first essay is a 30-minute argument from reading, experience, or observation; the second is a 40-minute source-synthesis essay using two provided sources.
The essay score is weighted equally with the multiple-choice score, and College Composition scores are typically available online 2-3 weeks after the exam.
ACE recommends a score of 50 for 6 semester hours, but each college decides whether and how to award credit.
The multiple-choice section tests conventions of Standard Written English, revision, source use, and rhetorical analysis. College Board lists approximate weights of 10% for conventions, 40% for revision skills, 25% for source materials, and 25% for rhetorical analysis.
College Composition includes two typed essays. The first asks students to agree or disagree with a provided statement using specific reasons and examples. The second asks students to synthesize two provided sources, develop a position, and cite the sources when paraphrasing or quoting.
Remote CLEP College Composition uses Proctortrack by Verificient with a human proctor. Students should complete Proctortrack onboarding, install ETS Online Test, confirm typing and keyboard readiness, prepare ID and a clear workspace, and follow the current smartphone second-camera requirement.

College Board's current CLEP College Composition page says the exam covers material usually taught in a one-semester first-year college composition course and uses multiple-choice questions plus essays to assess analysis, argumentation, synthesis, usage, logical development, and research. The exam has 125 minutes total: 50 multiple-choice questions in 55 minutes and two typed essays in 70 minutes. The first essay gives 30 minutes to respond from reading, experience, or observation; the second gives 40 minutes to synthesize and cite two provided sources. College Board says essays are scored twice a month by college English faculty, each essay is scored by at least two readers, and the combined essay score is weighted equally with the multiple-choice score to produce a single scaled score from 20 to 80. College Composition scores are not available immediately; College Board says they are typically available online 2-3 weeks after the exam. ACE recommends a credit-granting score of 50 for 6 semester hours, subject to college policy. Remote CLEP testing uses Proctortrack by Verificient with a human proctor and requires the College Board remote-testing setup, including Windows 10 or 11 PC, Chrome 100+, ETS Online Test app, approved Proctortrack onboarding, ID, clear testing space, and smartphone second-camera workflow for current remote administrations.
