  Skills Certifications from Rutgers University
Posted by: MailDog - 03-12-2007, 03:37 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (29)

Hello,

I caught wind of this from another board and thought I'd pass it on. I actually completed three job certificates over the weekend! You actually pick a goal/job and take a certain # of cert tests to acquire a job skill certificate. But for each individual cert test you take, you are awarded a (sub) certificate leading up to your job skill certificate. Now there is a purchase needed for each cert test, and you can only acquire your score/certificate if you pass and purchase the cert test at the end (prices ranges from $25 to $50) for each cert test certificate. For those looking for certifications to add to a resume this is a really good deal. Again, let me say that these are job certifications and they have no academic value - but great material to add to the resume since they carry the Rutgers University name!

Good luck to everyone!

  social sciences and history/college math
Posted by: abby - 03-12-2007, 11:36 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (10)

[SIZE="3"]Hey everyone!Smile
I'm pretty new at this forum thing. But I've taken a bunch of tests for my degree and I didn't know if there was any insight on these next two. Tomorrow, actually, I'm taking social sciences and history. I've taken History I and II, sociology, psychology, economics, almost everything they say to study for it. But, I'm still nervous about passing it. Some say it's really hard. Some say it's a breeze. Any pointers?

I'm also studying for college math which is really not my thing. I'm learning, but I always have trouble applying the book learning to a test or other application. Anyone have any hints on that for me? I'd appreciate it. I have another week and a half or so for that[/SIZE]
.Cool

  Excelsior or Charter Oak?
Posted by: Inteljustice - 03-11-2007, 03:43 PM - Forum: [ARCHIVE] Excelsior, Thomas Edison, and Charter Oak Specific Discussion - Replies (16)

I'd like my major to be a bachelor of science in criminal justice. I want to test out 80-90% of the degree so I can graduate by Dec. 07. My first 2 clep exams are going to be principles of management and intro psychology. Who do you feel has the upper hand, excelsior or charter oak? I'm leaning towards excelsior since they will allow majors rather than concentrations. I want to be a probation/parole officer, so I feel having a major in C.J. would further me faster than having a major in liberal arts or general studies. Do you feel in terms of college names, that one that's called state versus just _________ college offers up more credibility or attractibility in terms of employment?
Best Regards

  TESC BA Liberal Studies...
Posted by: iwannapass - 03-11-2007, 01:01 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (5)

Hello Everyone,
As you know, I have been trying to design my degree path to a BA in liberal studies with TESC. They haven't been a big help since I applied, and time is not on my side. We will be moving at the end of the year, and while my experience has put me on the "equivalent experience" side, I don't want not having a Bachelors to exclude me from any opportunities. From looking at my transcripts, most of the credits I have left to earn have to come from two or more general education subject areas (33 credits). Since most of my credits come from Social Sciences and Humanities, I will stick with these two. So here is my question.....

When looking at TESC's examination credits through testing, there are some exams that are considered Human Services, and Business. Since some of these are upper level according to TESC, do you think they would fall under the Social Science, Humanities subject area? I am particularly interested in Fundamentals of Counseling, Human Resource Mgt, Foundations of Education, etc.

I have been researching this for quite a while using the search engine on here and degreeinfo.com and can't seem to find any answers. Sorry for the long post but I really need some help......Sad

Thank You!!!

  Tips for U.S. History I?
Posted by: Southron Boy - 03-10-2007, 11:25 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (5)

Does anyone have tips for U.S. History I?

I plan on taking this during "Spring Break", but am wondering if I need more time to prep. I understand the REA book is good for this exam along with Don't Know Much About History(?). The search engine on this forum seems to have more info for HIST II than I. Has anyone successfully taken this one? How would you compare it to II?

I saw that Exelsior gives credit for GRE's, but does anyone know about the GMAT? I didn't see it mentioned. I plan to enroll at Excelsior in the next month or so.

  American Literature CLEP
Posted by: nm279738 - 03-09-2007, 11:47 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

IC does not have study questions for American Literature or even English Literature. Has anyone taken this test and if so what did you use as a study guide?
