Could have sworn the Psych exams were $190 a shot. They are now up to $205.

This was a difficult test for me. I passed with a score of 58, which makes this my 10th CLEP to take and pass, but I would not have been surprised had I failed it. I was not confident at any point during this exam.

I usually study IC flash cards and the REA book, and when I can answer all the practice questions with about a 90 to 95% accuracy rate I feel confident about the exam. I had reached this point a little earlier than I thought I would so I went ahead and scheduled the exam for today, July 6, 2007.

I read most of the post on the IC forum board regarding this subject and understood that this exam was a little more detailed and worded slightly different from the usual exams.

I can’t remember who stated that there were a lot of “what is the least” type questions, but whoever posted it was dead on. There seemed to be an usual amount of that type of question, which takes extra time to work through.

In addition, there were at least twenty questions regarding some theories that were not covered in IC, REA, or even Peterson’s. I usually don’t cover Peterson’s study material, but after reading all the post about this exam I decided I had better take extra precautions. I also read some on Wikipedia. Something I have never done before.

Of course I’m really happy to have passed this exam and feel quite lucky that I did pass it, but I feel that I should caution anyone who is thinking about taking this one to be really prepared for a tough exam.

I took and passed Intro to Psychology back in 2005, and read where this would help me with this exam as these exams dove tail each other, but I really can’t say it helped me all that much. Maybe because I waited so long before taking this one, but I don’t remember too many questions that were also on the Intro to Psychology exam being on this exam. Maybe my retention is worse than I thought.

So sorry for the long post but I like to give as I receive from this forum. Good luck to everyone and remember to think twice before taking this exam.

Best Regards, Jay

Hi all,
I just took ECE Abnormal Psy Exam at Pearson tonite. When I finished the result sheet appeared and disappeared in about a second and a half. How is everybody finding out marks right away or was i suppsed to read something quickly? Any ideas? I'm going to call Excelsior on Monday to see if I can get results but I was very ticked to say the least that I didn't ahve my score after that torture. thanks

Hi All,

I just completed the online Operations Management course at CSU-Pueblo. Now I am considering the CSU-Pueblo's English 101 online course to fulfill my Written English Requirement (WER) for Excelsior.

Has anyone already taken this course? I would love to find out what you thought of it, and how you did etc.

Thanks in advance,

I took the test today with 3 days worth of study. I was hoping for more on LLC's, partnerships, etc. That was the only area I knew before studying.

This was my first dantes test. I was a little worried when I walked in and one woman said to the other "Do you know what you are doing?" I noticed the older woman that posed this question left the room once I started my exam. I was just thinking well hopefully nothing goes wrong.

On question 11 the computer froze! I asked the woman that stayed behind what to do and she ended up calling the other woman that left. I was praying she was still around. Luckily, she came down after 5 min or so. At first she had some problems getting it to unfreeze and I was wondering if I would have to retake the test, but she got it going.

I thought that would be the end of it. After I finished the test (took me about an hour), it said to sign out or click end test for scores, so I hit end test and it says there isn't a test that was taken. I start to get very worried again. Again, the younger woman made a phone call and she came down and started looking at the test and asked if I took it (no I just stared at the screen for an hour I wanted to say), but she again (fortunately) found the test.

I passed but not by very much. I have a GMAT review class starting on Monday and I need to start studying for it. I just found out early this week I was short two upper level classes; however, my unofficial evaluation said I didn't need any. I was a little suprised.

I now have this weekend to learn enough to pass Civil War. I'll be glad when Civil War is over. I hope I will do ok. I reserved Ken Burns civil war on videotapes at the library. The dvd isn't available unfortunately.

Does anybody have any recommendations on study guides for GRE or MAT Tests?

Hi,
I am just wondering if anyone has had experience transfering 20 year old credits to Thomas Edison State College. I have 80 credits from a university from over 20 years ago and I would love for these to count towards something. They were mostly general education. There was economics, algebra, chemistry,etc.

I have heard that old credits transfer to Excelsior.

If this is already discussed on the forum, maybe you can give me a link. I did a search, but I couldn't find anything. Thanks for your help.

Best Wishes,

Hello,
I will be done soon with my LL testing, in planning my UL and going through
the BS LA requirements at Excelsior, they ask for 6 in Nat. Science and Math on the graphic chart in their catalog. 2 of those have to be math.
I read a little further in the catalog and it does not mention a Nat. Science requirement.
Am I confused or just hoping I do not have to take Bio. or Nat Sc.
Is there an alternative test in case I do need Nat. Sc. credits?
I have been looking for specific feedback but it is still not clear.
Help !

Thanks

For those that have taken the CSU Operations Management Couse, how much statistics did you need to pass the course? I have taken stats, but years ago. I was going to do a thorough review but thought I would ask those that have taken the course, how much do you need to pass this class.
