Done! Whew, today was one heck of a day... I woke up planning to go to my usual testing center, and take the aformentioned exams, plus Intro to Computers. Well, the poor guy at the testing center woke up with strep throat this morning! So, my girlfriend called just about every testing center in Georgia and managed to have me take Environment and Humanity, and ISCA... I had to drive to from Powder Springs to Dunwoody, then to Lawrenceville, then down to Fayetteville to see my girl for dinner.

Anyway, all that to say the stress of the day, and the driving all around in Atlanta's insane traffic was more stressfull than either exam!!

Env. and Hum. was a fairly easy exam, as long as you study IC thoroughly. I passed with a 55, and I needed a 46.

I passed ISCA with a 56, and I needed a 50. IC was once again enough, but know the different job descriptions and job titles of people who work in the field of computers, IT, IS, etc.; I had quite a few q's about jobs, etc. that threw me.

Well, I've only got four left! Drug and Alchohol Abuse and Intro to Computers is schedule for Thursday, then Foundations of Education and Managment Info Systems for next Tuesday, and I'll graduate!!!!!!!!

Whoo, can't wait.
Thanks for all the help folks, IC has been the best money I ever spent on schooling!

I took sociology today and I can't believe I passed. I was so nervous but that feeling was unbelievable. I feel like I am on my way and I have to give it all to this forum. You guys are so inspiring. Thank You!!!

Hi Everyone!!
I am in the process right now of studying for my first test, which is the Western Civilization I. I have found a bunch of useful information from previous posts but I was wondering if anyone could give me some helpful advise about using IC. Looking at how many flashcards (about 400) there are for Western Civ I, how does one learn all of that information?
I am also using a book that I got from passyourclass.com, which seems to be helpful but I am kind of worried that not all of the information I need is contained in that booklet. Has anyone taken the Western Civ I test by only studying with the passyourclass book?
I am also planning on taking World Religions if anyone has any good advise about that test too.

Thank you all for your help, I really appreciate it!

Just thought I would let the board know that I passed the CLEP exam, Introduction to Educational Psychology with a 69!! The exam was more difficult than I anticipated, but I passed.

I would advise you take Human Growth and Development prior to Educational Psychology ( great deal of overlap with these two exams) and use the REA books for these two exams.

This makes 5 CLEP's I have taken and passed in 9 weeks. Now I am ready for some upper-level DANTES, TESC, and ECE exams.

Most report that there is a ton of questions on the Stalin and Lenin eras. Has anybody used the sparknotes on these guys for the USSR exam?:

SparkNotes: Joseph Stalin
SparkNotes: Vladimir Lenin

Of course there is also the Russian Revolution sparknotes:
SparkNotes: The Russian Revolution (1917–1918)

Is there anyone who is attending or planning to attend tesc for a Bachelors in Business? if so, what are you taking to satisfy your upper level requirements? I am still waiting for them to get back to me, but I would like to get a head start in the meantime. Any advice or direction you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance.

I have decided to take the Excelsior Ethics exam and wanted to know if anyone has taken this exam and could offer some advice on study materials. I plan on using IC and the Harper Collins guide for College Ethics.

Also, I believe the exam is multiple choice. Does anyone know how many questions there are for this exam?

Hello,
I was going to enroll at Excelsior and cant seem to confirm if they are Title IV or not. I am not sure if my job will pay if they are not. Anyone know about this? Also if you are a UPS employee did they pay for Excelsior?
Thanks
