  DSST test price is going up October 1st
Posted by: mrezas - 09-29-2006, 07:25 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - No Replies

For those who are going to take DSST tests, you better go ahead and order those DSST test you are planning to take, to-day. I just got an email that DSST is going to increase their test price beginig October 1st, 2006.
The new test will be $70 each. So if you should take some DSST exam you can go ahead and order them to-day and schedule them later. You have more than a month to take them after test center got your test and call you to schedule for exam date.

  Graduate School Anyone?
Posted by: ShotoJuku - 09-29-2006, 06:16 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (109)

[SIZE="2"][COLOR="Navy"]Many, if not most of the IC members are currently working on, nearing completion or have recently completed their Bachelors Degree using the dynamic resources of InstantCert but just how many plan on or actually are going on to graduate level school?

I'll be 47 next month and just completed my Bachelors degree last month yet I feel strangely compelled to continue onward to the next level. At first I planned on sitting back, celebrating my accomplishment and "thinking" about pursuing a Masters degree in "several months." Since that time, just a few weeks ago, my perspective has changed significantly as I have boldly (perhaps foolishly) decided to enroll at California Coast University to tackle the Master of Science - Psychology degree.

Am I a glutton for punishment or what?

So I ask - just how many are planning on and willing to jump in the deep end too? I'll be the one madly treading water - Big Grin [/COLOR][/SIZE]

  Finished with testing (I think)
Posted by: SimonTam - 09-26-2006, 02:20 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (6)

Hi all,

After 11 CLEPS and 4 DANTES tests since I started in late June, I have finished all testing that I need. Big Grin Well, I may have to take 1 more test, but I won't know that until I finished with all of my accounting courses. Just 7 courses to go and I'll be completely finished with my BS in Accounting. Smile It sure does feel good to be close to finishing.

  Criminal Justice and Human Growth and Development
Posted by: stuffonline - 09-25-2006, 10:37 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (1)

Hello All, I have found a testing center that has the DSST Internet-Based Testing (IBT) available. It is at Trevecca College just outside of Nashville, Tn.
I will be taking the CJ DSST and the HGD CLEP tests on Thursday. All the DSST's are not available but they are getting there. No waiting 5 WEEKS! for a score report. I used IC and Petersons for the HGD and IC for Criminal Justice. Criminal Justice seems to be somewhat easy and HGD a little tougher but I think I have them down.

For anyone that lives close to Nashville here is the link to the college testing center: http://www.trevecca.edu/academics/academ...sting.html

I'll report back with the results.

BTW Thanks to all who post to this forum, the information has been EXTREMELY helpful and I will continue to read and post occasionally to "give some back" Thanks Again
Smile

  Principles of Supervision
Posted by: 50fingersntoes - 09-25-2006, 08:52 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

I have read some post on here about this test, but many of them say "easy" or "hard", but not exactly what is on the test? I did see one post that stated that there were scenerios on it. I have been studying for the past week and a half for this and feel that next week would be a great time to take it. I just haven't a clue if I am prepared well enough. I seem to really know the IC material, but am a bit worried that I am over looking something. Anyone help me out here?

THANK YOU!!

  Intro Acct'g and A&I Lit
Posted by: Johanna - 09-25-2006, 03:05 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (1)

I am scheduled to take both of these exams tomorrow so I may be 12 credits richer by tomorrow night. They have nothing whatsoever to do with each other but I want to take a bunch of pass/fail cleps before I register in November for Excelsior's psych BA. Does anyone know if calculators are allowed on the intro accounting exam?

Has anyone taken both English Comp general clep and Freshman College Comp? How do they compare? Can you take both for credit or do you have to choose because one cancels the other out?

  Non-Title IV School Scholarships?
Posted by: ShotoJuku - 09-24-2006, 01:35 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (2)

[SIZE="3"][COLOR="Navy"]As many of you know, I just completed my Bachelors Degree from Excelsior and will in all probability be enrolling in the masters program at CSU. Like Excelsior, CSU is also not a Title IV school preventing me from obtaining any federal student loans and such.

I am looking for any alternatives, including scholarships to help ease the financial burdens ahead. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks![/COLOR][/SIZE]
