  US History with REA study guide
Posted by: forserious - 04-08-2007, 04:38 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (12)

I read through the book and used the CD-ROM to take the first practice test. It scored it as a 60, is that an accurate representation of the score I would need to pass this test?

  My clep story
Posted by: Inteljustice - 04-06-2007, 07:52 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (8)

So I took the intro to psych today, passed with a 60 on only 4 hours a sleep from the night before. This is something I wouldn't recommend. But it couldn't be helped in my case. The night before, someone busted into my house while I was in it. They heard me and left before taking anything. I had to call the locksmith and have new deadbolts put on at the cost of $300. My luck lately has been really bad. My lesson out of all this is no matter what obstacles you go through in life, just keep your head up and realize that to get to the top of the mountain, you have to go through challenges before the final summit has been reached.

  Question about scores on Dantes
Posted by: nitai - 04-06-2007, 07:15 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

I am going to take my first DANTES and am confused about the scoring. I see that people get 49 and pass...is that out of 100? Or is the scoring different?

Thanks in advance

  regionally accredited college/universities that accept nationally accredited credit
Posted by: BGN - 04-06-2007, 04:47 PM - Forum: Off Topic - No Replies

See this question on various forums. Though it might be a good idea to start a list of regionally accredited schools that give credit or recognize degrees from nationally accredited schools. Here is one link, I don't know much about the school, or even if they have distance learning options available, but see that they will consider nationally accredited

degrees.Programs - Argosy University/Dallas - Argosy University


Thanks,

  Credit banking with one of the "Big Three"
Posted by: Old Rusty Pipe - 04-06-2007, 03:02 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

I have a problem I was hoping I could get some thoughts on. Recently ACE finally got around to evaluate one of the training schools I've been to in the Navy. They ended up awarding 15 upper level electronic credits for it. This evaluation happened 11/06. I went through the school in 8/05. After contacting ACE, they informed me that I was ineligible for the credit because I attended before the actual evaluation period. They also mentioned that it is ultimately up to the individual college to assess my training, and that they are free to use the recommended credit even though ACE won't put it on my SMART transcript. I'm looking to salvage some of these credits, with 15 upper levels I can't help but feel compelled to try.

The best I can come up with is try to credit bank at a RA college that will work with me, since its really a technicality denying me these credits I feel I have honestly earned. I figure that Excelsior, Thomas Edison, or Charter Oak will probably be my best shot at this.

For those who attend any of these schools, which would you say is the most understanding for a situation like this? I'm not looking to enroll, but merely to get these on a transcript I can use later on.

If anyone could think of another school that may help, I'd love to hear about it.

Any ideas? :confused:

  $3000 Accreditted Masters (MS/MBA) from Aspen
Posted by: pugman - 04-06-2007, 09:28 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (21)

Stumbled across this and thought I would pass it along to those interested in a inexpensive Masters Degree...

Tuition Offer

...and for those adult learners that may be interested in skipping the undergrad and going straight to MBA.

Online Graduate, Undergraduate, and Certificate Programs - Aspen University

I'm not a Aspen shill - just passing along info.

Downside with Aspen is it's DETC (not RA).

  Math requirement

What is everyone taking for Math that is enrolled in the LA program for Excelsior? Is there Liberal Arts Math or any other kind of math besides Algebra. I don't want to clep it and don't want to take algebra in a classroom. Are there any other options?

  Free Peterson's CLEP Prep
Posted by: journey - 04-05-2007, 08:45 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

I am still new to the forum so hopefully I am not duplicating efforts here. I found this link today that took me to a free pdf of Peterson's CLEP prep tests. It's a 2005 edition but still may give some valuable information. I searched the link and did not see that it was in another thread so I hope it will be of help to someone. The subjects included were Composition, College Math, Humanities, Social Sciences & History and Natural Science.

I bombed biology this week so I signed up for Natural Science and was searching hard for more resouces. I am also going to order the David and Laurie download. Any feedback on that would be great.

This forum is an excellent resoure. It keeps me encourage.

Here's the link: http://www.petersons.com/pdf/free/ClepSuccess.pdf

Regards,
Journey

I passed this one today with a 70. Pure gravy. I studied a total of about 3 hours with I/C.
