  Anyone know what passing score is for Drug/Alc. Abuse?
Posted by: nitai - 04-10-2007, 07:41 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

Hi everyone
yesterday I took the DANTES Drug and Alcohol Abuse test and know for sure I got a good amount wrong. I just totally spaced when I got to the testing center Sad
Anyway, there were 106 questions , I was wondering if anyone knows how many I need to get right in order to pass? I won't know my results for at least 2 weeks and I am nervous.

Thanks
Alex

  Is there such a thing as too musch studing?
Posted by: the fabric cutter - 04-09-2007, 07:11 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (11)

Okay, I am taking my first CLEP. It was suppose to be today but I felt I was not ready for it so I rescheduled it. I have been studying for a week now and I am using IC. My study plan is I will not go onto the next section of flashcards until I recieve a 100% on the prior section. The CLEP I am signed up for and going to take Wednesday is Into to Psychology. Ok, ok here is my question am I studing to much for the test. I really do not know what I really need to prepare for this test. I know in the forums everyone says that IC is enough. Should I just chill and take the test? Or keep going strong day and night!

I passed, my final 2 DSST test and I amset to graduate APril 26th (commencement is on June 2nd)! Big Grin I must say thanks a million times to Instant Cert and this forum. I could not have done this without this website. I spent 2 months studying for and passing the following exams:

Drug and Alcohol Abuse on 3/9 with a score of 51
MIS on 3/9 with a score of 52
Rise and Fall of the Soviet Union 51
Civil War and reconstruciton on 4/9 with a score of 47 (47 is passing whew!)

Now I know that these scores aren't great, but hey a pass is a pass, and that's all that I needed!!!

WOW, 12 upper division credits in 2 months, for a total cost of less than $400, you can't beat that!!!!!

In going through the flash cards, there are a multitude of "acts" listed in the questions. How many of them are actually on the test? Do I need to memorize each and every one of them?

  Production/Operations Management and Business Policy advice for Excelsior
Posted by: auminer49r - 04-09-2007, 11:38 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (19)

Hello all of you fellow CLEPers and Dante exam takers,

If you're going for a business degree at Excelsior College, you will need credits in Production/Operations Management and Business Policy. CLEP and DSST do not offer these exams. TECEP exams seem to be the popular alternative, however, they are reputed to be difficult, expensive, and slow to provide your scores. Rumor has it they cost $400 each, and it takes a good 6 weeks or longer to receive your results. Let me tell you about a cheaper, and possibly quicker alternative that will get you your 3 credits quicker that TECEP.

CSU-Pueblo (Colo St. Univ) offers independent study courses for both of the Excelsior College courses I mentioned. You pay tuition of $297 per course then the Professor emails you a syllabus. You get 6 months to turn in the required discussion question assignments from the textbook (another $60-$80 purchase from amazon, Ebay, or half.com) and to take 4 exams. Once you have read the chapters and done the discussion questions, you email the Professor and request the next exam. He will email it to you to take at home. (closed book... of course Wink ). You can bust out the assignments and exams as quickly as possible and the prof claims to be able to grade them quickly and return them with feedback in a day or two. Plus, the Prof is available for questions by email. PLUS... They do NOT verify that you have met the prerequisite courses. Even though you would do yourself an injustice to skip over the prerequisite courses, in my opinion. You need them anyway.

I suspect you can take the course for $297 in... let's say.. 1 month or maybe 2 and get a final grade right away. That sure beats spending $400 for a scary TECEP test that you don't know how well to study for and a long, drug out, lag time waiting for the test to be graded. Besides... what if you fail it?? What a waste of time AND money.
See both course descriptions on this page...

http://coned.colostate-pueblo.edu/Indepe...tudy/Mgmt/

I've done my research and I think you'd be doing something if you found a better value for Production/Operations Management and/or Business Policy at LSU (independent study) or anywhere else. LSU has a restriction on assignments per week. CSU-Pueblo does not.

I am waiting for my textbook to arive in the mail and then I will bust out P/O Mgmt in short order.

I wish I knew whether Excelsior would accept MGMT 460 - Operations Strategy instead of MGMT 485 - Management Strategy and Policy (which is actually the CSU-Pueblo capstone course) for their Business Policy requirements. I have a hunch they will based on the course name. But, I don't know. If you know... would you let me know?

Hope this info helps you as much as me.

  Pros and Cons : Distance and Brick/Mortar
Posted by: AGS - 04-09-2007, 07:37 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (1)

what are some pros and cons on distance education and brick/mortar schooling ?


I can say one advantage of Distance education would be time and less distractions .....

I feel a brick and mortar school can give you a great education but also distractions as well...
