Hello, I need to bring up my GPA at Excelsior some. I need to replace some lower level classes where I made Cs. My only science is a C. So one of them needs to be a hard science.

I need a 3 credit hour science and 10 additional generic lower or upper credit hour tests that I will be able to get a letter grade in.


I know many of the clep\dantes tests don't get letter grades just p/f. I also need a math test that is only P/F since I would be hard pressed to get an A in math!

thanks,

So, I am consistently scoring about a 90% on Peterson's practice tests for Principles of Supervision. Is that good enough for an A?

Thanks!

Anybody got any tips on the DSST HRM exam? I meant to take this a couple of weeks ago but got delayed. It seems so easy compared to many others, but I don't want to take it too lightly.

Anybody who's taken it I'd love to hear your comments.

Thanks!

For those who have taken the Principles of Accounting CLEP. How much of the exam required the memorization of formulas?

I just wanted to start a thread to say that I took the English Comp w/ Essay.
I feel I did pretty good on the exam, but we'll see.

[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Navy"]Just a Happy Thanksgiving message to everyone here in the IC-Forums-Family!!

This year I give particular thanks in earning my BS and also continuing on to go after my M.S. - Psychology...AMEN!![/COLOR][/SIZE]

I have no reason to go to this web page now. I finished my last test this morning. Excelsiors Human Resources exam. Since last Jnauary I have finsihed eighty credits. Most of them by testing. InstantCert has been very helpful.

Now I'm going to take a long nap.

Which one is easier, Psychology or Principles of Marketing? Also, how hard is Natural Sciences clep? Thanks a bunch!

I signed up today for the math tech 1 class at Penn Foster. I found Mary Beth to be extremely efficient and pleasant to deal with, just as "Shoto" had
described. She mentioned that this is a 3 month course and the final is proctored, but the other two course tests are not. Does anyone have any further insight on this course and I do appreciate the prior insights already offered up. Thanks again...and pray for me "THE" math phobic that Iam!!

Hello everyone. Let me first thank each and every one of you for your most exemplary contributions, knowledge and insights to this wonderful forum.

I, like most new members of this site, am filled to the brim with questions and uncertainty. I've been lurking here and at degreeinfo.com for about a month now, just trying to get a handle on certain degree paths and how to fully implement the varied credit evaluation testing of CLEP, ECE, Dantes etcetera.

Prior to stating my goals of academic intent, I feel a brief background of yours truly will prove to be imperative in obtaining the best advice possible. I'm probably younger than most, at the ripe old age of 23. hilarious I have a whopping eleven credits(mat105, mat120 and eng101), and have completed seven of the FEMA courses(those needed for the PDS certificate) without much effort. I'm a craftsman of sorts, and can generally grasp onto anything I find even remotely interesting. Like many other people I imagine, I stopped going to college due to not knowing what area I wished to call home, and to most importantly make money. I'm a self-taught composites fabricator, dealing mostly with carbon fiber and carbon kevlar infusions in the automotive arena. Other key automotive elements I dabble in, is lighting(HID headlights, LED turn signals, and LED taillight retrofitting, including the forming of optically clear lenses) and aerodynamics related to heat extraction(hood vents) and the overall lowering of a vehicles coeffecient of drag(Cd) by way of chin spoilers/splitters, canards, rear diffusers which include underbody ductwork, and overall suspension setup.

Now, being an employee to no one(I work out of my garage) is great, but now i'd like to venture into a stable career and leave the hobbies as just that. My intention is to get a degree(associates or bachelors) in CAD/drafting/design with an architectural flavor to it. From my research, I have a couple options. They are as follows.

1. Penn Foster CAD diploma/certificate + Anthem Online College Associates completion(assuming they accept the Penn Foster cert.)...

2. IvyTech AAS in CAD/architecture... LINK

3. Thomas Edison State College ASAST or BSAST in Architectural design...


I'm pretty much stuck at this point in regards to actually choosing a route, due to not knowing what classes are needed to complete each option. I have no doubts in my ability to "CLEP" the general course requirements, or even FEMA them if it's also an option. However, i'm not sure how to go about it exactly. Like, is the Penn Foster cert suitable for the major credits? If so, would I be able to CLEP test the rest of the needed credits and go through TESC?

Any insights would be most appreciated.
