I have gone through the flashcards from IC and luckily, a majority of the information provided on IC seems pretty fimiliar since I have already taken several finance classes, economic classes, and CLEPs. I will continue to review the information and pay for the DSST test that their website offers.

My question is, once you pay for the test off of the DSST website, can you print them out, or are they only online like the Peterson's test?

Any other tips and suggestions on this test would be appreciated. I have searched through the forum and found a couple of post that give some insight to the test.

Just wanted to let the community know I passed Human Growth and Development with a 68!! I studied for about 4 days, roughly 20 to 25 hours. A number of the questions seemed to come directly from IC. It was funny the number I answered that matched the IC flashcards. This was my 4th CLEP in 9 weeks. College is fun!!

Helpful hint: Get the REA: Human Growth and Development book and go through the IC flashcards and you will do fine.

Hello All,

This forum has been of extreme value in my effort to get my diploma. As a lurker I have found the advice offered to be thoroughly accurate and prudent. Therefore I've decided to break my silence and come forward with a question.

I recently discovered that I'm shy three credits of graduation. All I need to do is to fulfill a computer proficiency elective. I noticed that DSST offers an exam titled, Introduction to Computing. Unfortunately InstantCert does not offer flash cards for this exam. They do however offer assistance with the CLEP and DSST for exams pertaining to Information Systems and Computer Applications. My questions are:

1. Has anyone taken any of the above mentioned exams, and if so how would they describe the level of difficulty for each? My knowledge of computers is about the equivalent of the average office worker.

2. Would anyone recommend preparing for the CLEP or DSST in Information Systems and Computer Applications in lieu of Introduction to Computing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jason :confused:

Ok I'm new here I wanted to say hello and could anyone that has taken sociology help me with a few questions.I am doing my classses through college-net and excelsor for nursing. Is the study material I have from college-net enough to pass the test.I have read so many post that other people used other books etc. If I need other books please let me know I have been studying for 3 weeks now just from the net and college-net book.Anyone with info would be a lot of help ......Thanks Summer..

G'day All,

Well I am scheduled to sit the Principles of Management and the Principles of Statistics tomorrow and feel well and truly under prepared for both. It seems that getting the Principles of Statistics through this thick skull of mine has been a major chore leaving no time to devote to the Principles of Management at all. Anyway, I have committed to sitting these tests tomorrow and I will report back, pass or fail, on how I go.

The purpose of this post is because while considering my lack of preparation at work today I did a quick search of the net and found a couple of links others may find of use. The first link leads to a series of PowerPoint presentations addressing the Principles of Management (which I am reading through now), the second is a link that seems to have some useful information in regard to business studies (unfortunately too much for me to get through tonight) and the third is a Statistics link. I did a search of the forum and didn’t find reference to these links so if they do appear elsewhere I apologize. I do hope someone can find some useful information from these links.

I am taking (maybe ) Principles of Management on Wednesday. I am scared of taking another test because I failed two in a row (US History I and II). I have taken two of the Petersons tests and got 65% and 66%. On the College Board test I got 59% on the first half. When I went to take the second half, I got 23 questions into it and only had 7 correct!!! I don't know what the deal was. I also feel like I know the IC material well and am using the Comex along with it. Any tips or encouragement would be GREATLY appreciated!

I only need 50% to pass.

Hi I was wondering if anyone has taking this one and can provide feedback.
Thanks,
Adoncia

I have completed 2 CLEP and 2 DANTE tests. How long does it usually take for the scores to get to your selected college (U of P) and how long for the school to grant you credit?

Thanks,
Shawn

Hello,

has anybody written Dantes Human/Cultural Geography? How did you study for it?

Hope somebody can help me.

Thanks,

Okay - I have looked and searched the site but I am not really finding what I am looking for.

I am just wondering if anyone has any feedback on how their job search went after they got their degree through Excelsior or even one of the other online schools. I am venturing forward to get my degree in business/accounting. I am just wondering if there is any feedback on Excelsior versus a traditional college degree.

I have used CLEP tests for several credits....It has saved me alot of money. The college I am currently taking classes through does not accept ECE test and I cannot take DSST because I am not military(hmmmm should I enlist LOL). The tuition and class restrictions are killing me....at this rate I will get my degree in 2009..I don't want to wait that long, it seems like such a snails pace compared to others who have gotten their degrees on here.

Any input would be appreciated since I am trying to decide if I can afford the enrollment fee for Excelsior or should I just save my money and use for classes.
