For the sake of comparison, I'm about to take the ECE exam Psychology of Adulthood and Aging using only Instacert. I've studied for about 3 hours so far and estimate that I will study another 6-8 hours before taking the test early next week. I will post the results as soon as i have them.
I've been trying to ascertain whether or not this will consistently produce a passing score. Already took DSST Civil War and studied EXTENSIVELY for many months using supplemental info as well. Scored very well but simply need a pass on my remaining exams. Took USSR the other day just using Instacert and Rudman and about 3 weeks study so I'll know around Xmas on that one and pass it on...
Taken
DSST Civil War (63)
DSST USSR (waiting)
Upcoming
ECE Psych of aging
ECE Geronotology
ECE Ab Psych
DSST: Drug & Alcohol
Then....DONE!!

I "applied" at Excelsior around the first week of November and had all my transcipts sent to them...I guess they are really backed up or something--still waiting on that eval, I even called them a week ago to ask some questions and they said they were almost done.
How long did they take for you?

OMG...I passed...I'm done...Amen! |

To everyone still on their journey, keep going, you can do it. I wish you all the best of luck in the future.
Merry Christmas!!

HG & D & Ethics in America |

Just passed Human Growth and Development this morning! I got a 63, and thought the test was pretty easy and straightforward - although I did find that there was some information on the exam that was not on IC. I only studied for 10-12 hours for this one, so the lack of info on IC wasn't a problem obviously, but just so everybody knows.
And I passed (with my girlfriend) Ethics in America on the 30th of November with a 66. It was easy and straightforward as well, so I would recommend either of these exams as average to easy, and say that IC is enough for both of them.
My study schedule is: read through the IC cards and take notes on everything. Then I read back through each section twice in a row. That's working for me for these middle of the road tests.
17 classes to go!

I plan to take Heres to Your Health soon. Based on the posts IC alone should do the trick.
Then I would like to take the DSSTs Organizational Behavior and Foundations of Education. Should I get the DSST study guides for each of these in additional to IC?
Also, I do not need any more upper level credits (all my upper level are in my art program since I am an art major) I have read posts on D & AA, and I am wondering if it is worth it. Same feeling about Macro and Microeconomics. Perhaps I should put my efforts into a different test. Perhaps Social Sciences...Any opinions?
