I know that there is a limit on earning multiple Bachelor's degrees, in the form that only 90 of said credits will transfer to the new Bachelor's, plus a few more restrictions.

But are there any restrictions on the earning of multiple Associates?

I ask this because, I am just a few exams away from completing my CCAF AAS Aircraft Maintenance Technology, and then want to focus on the AS of Business through Excellsior.

And then, As I plan to get at least, two Bachelor's (neither of which have anything to do with Aircraft), the other in Arts (probably Psychology), If I can also earn an associate of Arts, as well.

These Associates degrees may not carry as much weight as Bachelors, but they are, in a way, an important milestone that mark the halfway point.

So can I have multiple associates, or since I'll already have one (CCAF AAS AMT), I'll have to skip right to the bachelors

any information would be helpful

cheers!

I need nine natural science credits. Science and math just aren't my thing. Fortunately, I already have my math credits from courses I took way back in college. Can anyone suggest some science exams for someone who HATES science?

My school, Thomas Edison, has a 6 credit 12-week course on environmental science that I could probably handle. (Cost isn't a factor in whether to take a test or not since with TE you can pay a year's tution in one shot.) If I take the class I still would need 3 credits. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I just completed the 1st of the 2 ECE Ethics practice exams and wonder if anyone can shed some light on my results. My score was 64 of 100 points. My statistical result shows 88.73 percentile, with a mean % of 43.72%. What exactly do these results tell me? I'm wondering how this score might result if this were my score on the actual exam. I wish they would give a letter grade- at least I would know if I would have received a C or not. Would a 64/100 translate into a D and therefore a failure on the actual exam?:confused: EC exam grading seems much less straightforward then CLEP or DSST results. Any help is appreciated!

Hi all,

I've seen a couple of people ask what to do if they have to take a college course that is not offered in a test or by the school in which they are enrolled. In most instances, you would probably have to go to a local school and enroll as a transient student. However, there are schools that offer web-based and correspondence courses for open enrollment for college credit. Some of these don't even require the student to go through the school's admission process. Just sign up for the class and pay tuition and books. Also, these correspondence courses are many times charged as IN-STATE tuition even if you don't live in the same state as the school. Many of these schools are the state-funded colleges and Universities. These aren't degree mills presenting watered-down classes. Anyway, I present this list to the board as general information for the members.

Of course all good things must come to and end (not) and although I will take the "final-final" tomorrow I probably will not receive my grade much sooner than those pesky dantes exams (2-3 weeks).

In any event, I will do my best (shades of college math clep - CRAP!) and hope to pass with as miserable a grade as possible - but a "pass is a pass." Actually, I have a 82 (B) for the classs and MUST pass the final in order to pass the course.

I sit the exam at 1100 hours (est) and only have 1 hour to complete around 15-20 questions ranging from formulas, basic to intermediate algebra, logarithms, and the metric system. It is an open book test, which is to say that I may be able to look for solution methods but not the actual problem and/or solution.

This is my next exam- 2 weeks from Monday. I've been studying for a while, I tend to spend a lot more time preparing for exams than most folks as my study time is very limited on a day to day basis. I've been using IC DSST Ethics, a couple guides specifically for ECE Ethics from Ebay, and a textbook. I'm feeling kind of uneasy about this one. Any further input would be appreciated! It just seems like a lot of information and names/theories to keep straight! I've heard some say that IC with the new scenerios is enough- any other testimonials? If I pass this one, I plan to finish my last 4 courses traditionally and thru Excelsior courses. Thanks for the input.

I was wondering what Excelsior gives you credit for if you pass the Social Sciences and History CLEP...do you just get 6 elective credits or something more specific? Also, while we're on the 6 credit exam subject...how about the same question for the Humanities CLEP?

Thanks for your help...

I got the categories all screwed up. I need 6 credits in Human Civilization and 6 credits in human thought...what cleps do I need to take? I am currently scheduled to take Introduction to Religion...but if I don't need it or it won't count toward my requirements I don't want to take it.
Would someone please make heads or tail of this for me…recommend the easiest cleps or Dantes.

Thanks :eek:

Am taking the Dantes test on Aug 26th. I am told that it is a pencil and paper test. Does anyone know how many questions, what an average passing score is, etc? I have never taken a Dantes test before.
Thanks,

Hi,

I just wanted to get some study advice on the Humanites CLEP from those of you who have taken it. I have access to instacert.com, Peterson's, REA and Princeton's. I did very well on the Peterson's exams today 98% on fine art and 68% on literature. I do have trouble recognizing passages from poetry since I not too familar with that subject. I know a lot about dance and art history (I've had to brush up on it), music history I'm doing better on. I know some SHakespeare, etc.

I guess what I am asking is...is it enough to keep taking the practice exams and reading the explanations or should I really know the subjects in depth outside of the practice exams? Will questions pop-up that I don't know if I just use the study exams?

Any guidance you can give me is appreciated since this is also my very first CLEP.

Thanks!!
