Well I'm down to my last 2 test, I have about 3 weeks to prepare and pass 2 more Dantes test for my Bachelors degree at Governors State University. The 2 I've decided to take are Civil War and Reconstruction and Rise and Fall of the USSR. I have very little knowledge on these subjects, and I'm starting to panic that they may be over my head. Using IC and Wikipedia, is it reasonable to think that if I dedicate 1 hour per day that I will have given myself sufficient time to pass these test? I squeaked by on Drug and Alcohol Use with only IC and about 3 days of study using IC only, but I get the feeling I got really lucky. Have I not given myself enough time to handle these 2 test? What do you guys think?

I received an e-mail yesterday from Charter Oak State College that my Academic Autobiography has been approved. This completes all requirements for my bachelor's of science degree;I will graduate in May.
Instantcert was a tremendous help in completing my degree plan. Listed below are the Clep and Dantes tests I completed with their corresponding score and credits earned. Also listed is study materials used for each exam.
1. Humanities 62- 6 credit Instantcert and REA Study Guide 11/05
2. Social Science and History 64- 6 credit Instantcert and REA 12/05
3. English Comp w/Essay 51- 6 credit English Grammer for Dummies,REA 02/06
4. Natural Sciences 60- 6 credit REA Study Guide 03/06
5.Analyzing and Interpeting Lit. 61- 6credit REA Subject Book 04/06
6. American Goverment 60- 3 credit CliffNotes 05/06
7.Principles of Management 61-3 credit REA Subject Book 05/06
8.Principles of Public Speaking 61- 3 credit used a book I picked up at Border's for $10.00, and internet sites like Toastmaster's. 06/06
9. Intro to World Religions 73- 3 credit Instantcert, book from Border's 06/06
10. Ethics in America 78- 3 credit Instantcert only 07/06
11. History of the United States I, 66- 3 credit CliffsNotes, Instantcert 07/06
12. Foundations of Education 67- 3 credit Instantcert only
13. Intro Sociology 65- 3 credit REA Subject Book 08/06
14.Intro Psychology 70- 3 credit CliffsNotes 09/06
15.Intro to Ed. Psychology 64- 3 credit Instantcert,GRE psych. book 10/06
16. History of United States II, 67- 3 credit CliffsNotes,Instantcert 10/06
17. Here's to Your Health 66- 3 credit Instantcert only 10/06
18. Accounting 50- 6 credit picked up a book at Border's about $15.00. 11/06
19. College Math 56- 6 credit REA,multitude of other books,time 11/06
Also completed the 1 credit Computer Literacy course now required.
All told 79 credits in just under a year (barely). Certainly not a rarity on this board. There are many who have completed far more test in a shorter period of time than I. So if you are hesitating,and procrastinating out of fear, don't.
In case you're wondering I had accumulated 41.7 credits prior to matriculating with Charter Oak. Of these 36 were upper level in my concentration,so I only needed to earn lower level credit to complete my degree.

Hello All...
I'm new to forum(s) and also new to the CLEP world, wish I knew about this ALOT sooner I would of been on a Doctorate's by now. lol
Anyway, I'm "TRYING" to pursue a Bachelores in Business Administration; However, I don't even know what CLEP's to take as I already have some credits but don't want to take CLEP for classes I don't need or already have taken, anyone have any advice? Also, How difficult are the CLEP exams scoring on a 1-10 system 1 being the easiest and 10 being the hardest??? I will be taking my 1st CLEP next month, but not sure which one to take...
I really hope this forum helps me in completing a lifelong and family dream to be the 1st one in my family to get a College Degree, as I was/am the 1st to attend college. Please help....thanks!
I have my work cut out for me but I'm hoping that with the guidance of some of the people in this forum, it will help expedite the process. Thanks again!

Hey guys, I am in the military and I am looking to finish my bachelors degree or as close to it in the next 2 years that I am still in . I was looking at St Leo and Excelsior. Heres a question for all of you who have completed degrees at Excelsior, has anyone been accepted into a good masters program using a bachelors from Excelsior? I know you can get your degree rather quickly there but I have heard some things about this college such as the accreditation is not all that great. Thanks
