Just took and passed the Intro to Sociology exam, 63/80.
So, I need 4 more credits in Social Science.
I am taking the Analyzing and Interpreting American Literature exam soon, and I will need 4 more Humanities credits.
I am currently attending AIUOnline.
So, from this list, which are the 2 EASIEST CLEP/DANTE exam's to take?
I need one for Humanities Credit (HUM), and one for Social Science credit (SOC). Thanks in advance!
*** I know alot of you may say the History exams are EASY... please keep in mind that I am really bad in History and would only be relying on the Instacert material.

I just received my status report. I was given 8 credits for Comptias, 8 credits for MCSE and 3 credits for CCNA, total 19. Security+, Network+, (70-293 and 70-294 MCSE) were applied as upper credits (9).
Now, the serious work begin. I have 36 core credits to complete. Meanwhile, I have some clepping to do in the art and sciences, in addition the Discrete Math.
The moment of truth is here. Any suggestions on how to approach all of this without pulling out my hair.

I am very interested in their Masters in Music, but am unsure about their accreditation in general.
Their coursework looks quite normal, but there seems to be a religious affiliation that is somewhat vague underneath it all, as well, not that being a religious school is a bad thing at all, it's just that their mission seems ambiguous.
Just not sure.
Thoughts and insights welcome.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I am taking the Dantes D&A Abuse test this friday. This is the first Dantes exam that I am going to take. I have taken the CLEP Analyzing and Interpreting Literature exam and passed with a 53. I also took CLEP US1 and US2 and did not pass those. I only studied with the CLEP study guides on those exams. I haven't really studied as much as I would have liked to for this exam but, I am going to try and cram in as much as I can this week with the other two midterms I have for my other classes that I am taking :o . Can anyone give me any advice? I have looked on the other posts about the charts to remember and what not. Can anyone tell what I should expect and what to focus on.
This is my supposed last semester at Boston University, graduating with my BS in Computer Science. In order for me to graduate in December is to finish the three classes I am taking now and another 12 credits which are all electives. I am going to try and plan on passing on 3 exams=12 credits. The D&A being my first one. I hope I can reach this goal. The reason I am trying to get it done by the end of December is because I would like to start Grad School in January. Any support is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hey everyone! How is everyone doing? I am really new to this, and I have only been on here for a few weeks now. This is my FIRST POSTING. lol. I took my first dantes: Principles of Supervision using Instacert.com. I studied for approximately three weeks studying a couple hours a night. I used strictly Instacert, though. I am really nervous, and I am scared that I did not do well! This is my first time actually studying for a clep/dantes exam. I am now studying for Intro to Sociology and taking that the 25 of this month! What materials should I use for Intro to Sociology? I am really nervous...should I look up some terms on the internet...I have been reading on freeuniv.com, does that help? Should I take those Peterson's as well? I am really excited about this program, and I was also wondering if anyone can help me! I want to take Principles of Management next (after Intro-Sociology)...how hard is that one? Also, which one is easier Here's to your Health or Intro to Business. I have no background experience in any of those subjects... Thanks for all your help, and have a great day!

To Major or Not to Major |

...in psychology. So I'm trying to decide on a major before I enroll with Excelsior. I could go BA/BS Psychology with a Sociology focus or BA/BS Liberal Studies with Psychology and Sociology focuses. The coursework would be almost the same for either degree-- the only difference being that I would skip statistics with the LS major. I just can't decide which would be better for me on a resume.:confused: I have also been considering grad work in management or library science.
I've had a couple bad experiences in telling people I was going to be a psyche major. One person told me that I had issues because I was pursuing it without wanting to practice mental health (to my face!) and the other took it to mean that every time I asked her how she was doing (as in, "Good morning, how are you?") I was psycholanalyzing her! Is there really a stigma attached to psych majors or is it just the weirdos I work with? I just happen to like studying social sciences.
On the other hand, I like the Liberal Studies major because it would be more general, which might be good for the type of government jobs I would apply for. But then, I wonder if there are also employers that might frown upon the absence of a traditional major... like my older brother who loves to tease me about my AA in "Nothing" (General Studies). Bad brother!
Basically the same degree, different names. I don't feel terribly strongly one way or another. So I would love some opinions on the subject. Any thoughts?
