I've got Sociology and American Govt. scheduled for this afternoon, my last 2 CLEPs.

Last evening, attended orientation at Missouri State, got registered for my classes, and ordered books. School starts on the 20th. This 40-something Grandma is excited about going back to school! When we were waiting for orientation to start last night, I realized everyone standing around who looked about my age was parents of students -- I was handed a program for the Parent session that was held last night when I walked in the door.

My total bill for 16 credits was around $1800 -- cheap by college standards, but I couldn't help but compare to the 18 credits I'll hopefully have completed after today, for about 1/3 the cost, and without the hassle of attending a semester's worth of classes!

I was invited to join the Honors program, which is sure an honor.

Thanks to IC, I feel pretty good about today's tests. Will post this evening with my scores.

This may be old news, but I found this on the college board website and thought I would post it for the veterans on the forum. It appears that the VA will cover the cost of standardized tests (including ECE exams!!!) as well as any administrative fees. If I read this correctly, this is not part of the GI bill therefore if you GI bill has lapsed, you can still get reimbursed. Please see the links below.

Seems like ages since our beloved Kiwi Lover has joined our ranks....could she be off on another of her beloved vacations? Must be nice!

Hello all,

Thought one of you might be able to help me out. Can you explain a "Functional Structure"? I'm having a bit of trouble with it. Thanks!

hi all! =]

i went though the world religions thread and someone mentioned about practice exams for dantes. i was wondering if someone could tell me where to get it because i looked at the dantes website and could only find the fact sheet that contains 12 questions. also, i tried looking at peterson's website but i don't think world religions was listed as an exam that they have a practice test for.

so if i missed something, can someone please point it out for me? thanks so much you guys!

I have only taken exams that had a Peterson's practice test so it was easy to see how ready I was to test. What benchmark do you use for tests, such as PO Marketing, that lack a Peterson's? Thank you

I'm hoping someone has done this before. I have a few MS certification i want to send to my TESC credit bank. How do i get MS to send them the information? I have searched and searched and cant find out who to contact. Any help would be greatly apprecaited

I'm using IC flashcards and will follow-up with the Excelsior practice exam. Will this be enough to get an "A" on this exam?

Thanks,
Anne

Only 345 flash cards on this site to memorize. WOW my head is aching, I cant get them commited to memory. There is alot of info. here. Any secrete way of commiting them to memory, I am getting discouraged and think I have no brain cells to commit to memory. Help.:eek:

I would like to find out from others, what their deepest thoughts or feelings are on Instacert. I know almost everyone on in this forum if not everyone agrees that IC is second to none!

Instancert in my own words

For me IC is better than stocks or options. The return on Investment is a hundred fold. To justify my opinion; It took me 7th months to get 15 credits at UoP and almost over $5000-$7500 in student loans.

I read about CLEP and Dantes on UOP student page. I learnt this could help me get my BS degree in about just a little over three years, since I had 0 credits that is if I did not take any breaks in between.
I was excited about this good news, UOP could take a maximum of 30 Clep or Dantes Exams towards a BS degree.
With all the joy and the possibilities of earning a college degree in about three year, I enrolled at UOP and class began on August 28th 2006.

In Persuit of study materials of CLEP exams that could help me finish my degree in a short Period of three years (2010 to be specific), I stubbed upon IC on Google.

It has been like having a share in the Gold Rush Era, making a very rear investment which is more than a Cash Cow (Marketing students).

IC for me has made up for the opportunity I missed in Investing in Google stock or Microsoft (remember this is in my own words).

In the past I had started college more than three times and never made it through a semester. My interest would just vanish before the end of semester (until UoP) hence 0 credits the time I was enrolling at UOP. …..I might also want to attribute this dropping out to lack of funds, but I wont because I once lived in California were in 2003 state college was less than $30 per three credit unit course if my memory saves me right.....

I mention this to say IC goes beyond being an investment that generates great profit. It is through IC that I found out that it is possible to finish College degree in Less than One year. which at first I thought it was too good to be true, and you know what they say "if it is too good to be true, keep away from it, because its just that "too good to be true"
I immediately transferred to EC, (first time ever hearing about the Big three).

After deep thoughts I have come to tie IC to the words I read and I quote
"LOVE is strong; LOVE can make a sick man well and a health man sick. It is LOVE that took Christ to the cross and the same LOVE that raised him from the dead"
And in my own words I say it is the Love on IC Forum (remember they are several types of Love, but Love is just that; Love) that has keps me going, it is Love and support on this great site that had encouraged me to earn over 40 credits through Exam in just about 4 few Months without owing nobody a cent. (what a liberating feeling) Indeed IC is strong and great!!

I liken IC to an Employee verses a Self Employed person, IC is like the self employed person the benefits to numerous to mention!!!

"Success is having lived Life under your own terms" IC has made me this true in my Life "Earning a degree under my on terms" The power of Credits by Exams.
Sorry for writing so much, I just had to get half of my feelings on IC out of my chest before I could burst; to people who at least can relate even a little bit.

Thanks IC and the great people on this forum, I can write enough to thank you
