I would like to echo some of the statements about this test being quite easy. I read about it on here on Monday this week, and decided to try this exam. I completed the three free practice tests on guidnace net with scores of 72, 72, and 76. I took the test this evening and scored a 72. I looks like the practice tests were quite accurate in showing the level of understanding of the material.

Anyone that needs a quick humanities test, this was a good one for me.

I have been looking over the notes for this exam, and maybe its just me, but it seems pretty common sense info if you have been out in the workforce a long time. I haven't been able to devote as much study time with the amount of stuff going on, but I was wondering if you guys thought I could still pull this off tomorrow or monday? You can tell me if I am in over my head. Thanks!!

I need to know whether the my editor,writer's tool and reference (with the word bank)etc which are present in my access will be there for the actual exam and if i will be given options between 2 essays in each section?
Also what is the desired length of the essays on the actual exam.When i write long essays on my access,i seem to get better points.
Thanks,
Adoncia

:confused: Well yesterday I took the College Math CLEP (6hrs). It has been a while, but I am pretty good a Algebra and I used IC and another website Free University Project - CLEP General Exam in Mathematics which I thought was also awesome to help brush up on new material and the stuff I struggle with. The test I tooked was very tough and was not what I expected. It was probably 65% probability, statistics, pre-calc, functions and truth tables... and just a broad mixture of geometry and algebra on the other 35%.. I ended up getting a 41 on the test and needed a 50 to pass... so close yet so far away... not sure what I am going to do to meet that math credit.

I saw a lot of threads talking about success stories so wanted to post this one. I just want to hear if anyone else has had the same problem and what they did to improve or if they got their math credit some other way.

This was my first CLEP and wished I would have picked a easier subject to start off on the right foot. Any thoughts:eek:

Being that they are closed due to snow I'll ask here...

1) In reviewing the materials for the Buisness degree, I see there is a requirement of "must complete a minimum of 12 credits in advanced business electives".

Where do I find more detailed information on this requirement? I've looked everywhere and can't see it.

2) Under the required business components, are the courses "business policy", "production/operations management", "princlples of management", Business law" and "financial accounting" available as exam-only credit? I see some are available as clep but not sure of the rest?

Sorry if these are bad questions but Im new.

Thanks!

Hi I'm Candance.

I'm new to Instantcert. my first test will be macroeconomics on tuesday.:confused: I'm starting from scrach with no credits. Any words of encouragement. Cause I'm scared

I have thoroughly scoured this forum using search tools and looking at the thread name on all 50 pages of the general forum. I had to do that because, unfortunately, all the words in Management-Information-Systems are too common and yield too many unrelated results, and MIS is too short for the search function!

In any event, any advice on either exam would be GREATLY appreciated. I've thoroughly studied InstantCert for both and am about to try the CLEP Sociology practice exam. That's all I got. I haven't yet found a practice source for the MIS exam. I read all the conflicting opinions re. Petersons and plan to try that--I hope I have a link that works. Some of the historical info here is no longer valid.

Any info at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to InstantCert and this forum I did very well on my CLEP ISCA and DSST Intro to Computing so I want to keep the momentum going. Thanks!

Hello everyone!

I'm a newbie to InstantCert but have heard so many great things about it that I have decided to give it a try in completing the remaining credits for my BA in History & Social Science.

I have 12 credits left to complete by June 1 2007 in order to qualify for a full scholarship to obtain my Master's degree. Needless to say, since I don't have that much time (work full time and am taking 3 regular courses now which will be done by March 15) I don't have time to re-take any if I fail.

Here's my list:

Humanities CLEP 6 (or Into to Psych CLEP 3 & Intro to Religion DSST 3)
US Hist 1 CLEP 3
US Hist 2 CLEP 3

I must admit I am a little intimidated by the Humanities CLEP. Not sure if I should try it or if the other two, Psych and Religion, would be easier).

Working on free electives and have satisfied all upper level requirements so I can really take anything. If there are any easier exams I could complete with minimal effort I welcome the input.

Any suggestions?

Mally

folks,

I am about to take DSST - Civil war & Reconstruction in 10 days and have been studying with IC for 3 days, Any advise on other study sources ?

Thanks

Hi All -

I'm getting ready to submit my application to Excelsior. My testing will be finished up within the next few months and I want to confirm that I'm on the same page as them on my existing credits.

My question is - how do I handle the CLEP tests I take after I apply at Excelsior but before I enroll? There will be a delay while they evaluate my application. Can I send my score directly to them even before the enrollment process is complete? I'd rather not have to pay for another CLEP transcript.

Thanks!!
