  Nutrition?
Posted by: dloth - 07-14-2007, 11:36 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Has anyone needed to take a nutrition class? I am working towards my Bachelors in Nursing and that is one I need to take. So far I have only been able to find it at my community college (online at least), but if I could find a better way to take it I would be so much happier. My cc requires biology as a pre-req - maybe another place would just let me take it??? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  Passed MIS abd Computer Info & Applica
Posted by: mapalo - 07-14-2007, 11:28 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (11)

I just passed MIS and computer applications.

I barely maded it for MIS I got 49 and the passing point was 46, I know I heard from people that this was an easy Exam, I thought it was very tricky because of the abbreviated questions throught out the Exams in regards to Management Information Systems.
Please please if any one trying to do this Know everything on Prototyping, GDSS, ESS, CMOS. MIRC, BPI, POS, TCP/IP/ FTP, and many more,

I knew what the where if when they were written in full, but I had a shocked when more of the Exam had abrevations, that's when I got confused, because there is really a thin line between all those letter.

As for Computer Info $ Applications, I thought I failed too, but was suprised and happy that I got 58.

I have to go out quickly if you need more info in these test, I can provide more info

Hello to everyone. Smile I am new to the discussions. Seems like most of you all are quite experienced in taking the exams. I will soon be taking the Eng.215-Composition CLEP Test (not really sure if I named it right). I was wondering if any of you have taken this CLEP exam already and if you could give me some pointers or advice. It will be my first one ever. I'm a bit nervous. Any suggestions would be most appreciative. Thanks

Just came back from trekking into the Pearson Site to take Gerentology only to be told that their system crashed and I couldn't test!:confused: Seems they couldn't call me because they had no idea who was coming in since the system was down.:mad: Gotta have a back-up plan for stuff like this. Suppose it could have been worse, it could have crashed in the middle of my test!:eek: Oh well, I'll be busy next week, three tests instead of two. Gotta go studyRolleyes

  Passed Principles of Marketing - Boring Test
Posted by: tvelasquez - 07-13-2007, 10:42 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (8)

I passed my first CLEP today. I took the Principles of Marketing and passed with a 51. I took this test first because I heard it was easy, however, I found it to be so boring that I had a difficult time studying for it, coupled with studying for Cisco CCNA which I also passed and poor planning on my part, taking the exam after working 12 hours and getting 3 hours of sleep, but a pass is a pass for CLEP. I did make it thought all of the IC sections and I took the 3 practice test in the REA 5th edition book.

I’m glad this one is over, now I can start studying for the fun ones!hilarious

For anyone preparing to take this exam know the following:

Pricing Polices and Strategies (Price Elasticity, Psychological pricing)
Distribution Systems (channel functions and Behavior)
Product Life Cycle
Brand Management
Product Mix and Concepts
Demographics
Market Segmentation
Organization and Industrial Markets
Marketing Ethics

  Financial Accounting
Posted by: bean - 07-13-2007, 12:47 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (7)

In the TESC 2007-2008 catalog http://www.tesc.edu/catalog/pdf/catalog.pdf
it seems to have CLEP Financial Accounting listed as 6 hours. Is this a mistake? Is it really speaking of the old test, "Principles of Accounting" which included the managerial.

Also, has anyone taken the new one yet? I was suppose to take the old one two days after I was evacuated from my home due to flooding:eek: . I had to cancel so I will be taking the new one soon. It would be great if it still counted for the 6 hours.

Thanks for any help,
Mark

  Excelsior News - Title IV Financial Aid Approval
Posted by: barcotta - 07-12-2007, 11:26 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

The only thing that ever gave me a smidgen (an upstate NY word--it means "very tiny") of concern about Excelsior College was their lack of a Title IV financial aid program. As far as I could tell, most regionally accredited schools qualified under Title IV for federal financial aid. Why didn't Excelsior? The other two (Thomas Edison and Charter Oak) were Title IV schools. It's not like Excelsior (USNY Regents, Regents, etc.) hasn't been around just as long--since the days of orange kitchen counters!

It also bothered me a little that I could not find ANY information explaining the absence of a Title IV program ANYWHERE. The only thing I could find was that they had applied. Well, via snail mail, I received the attached letter in which President Ebersole announces that Excelsior has been notified that they have been approved to offer Title IV financial aid. I think that's a big deal in terms of bolstering credibility for their school. Many on this board attend Excelsior and there's a constant stream of newbies gathering information to choose a school. Hopefully, the attached letter which contains this news and more will be helpful to you all.
