Planning to take "World population" exam soon, Any study tips, ?

Thanks

Hello Everyone,
As you know, I have been trying to design my degree path to a BA in liberal studies with TESC. They haven't been a big help since I applied, and time is not on my side. We will be moving at the end of the year, and while my experience has put me on the "equivalent experience" side, I don't want not having a Bachelors to exclude me from any opportunities. From looking at my transcripts, most of the credits I have left to earn have to come from two or more general education subject areas (33 credits). Since most of my credits come from Social Sciences and Humanities, I will stick with these two. So here is my question.....

When looking at TESC's examination credits through testing, there are some exams that are considered Human Services, and Business. Since some of these are upper level according to TESC, do you think they would fall under the Social Science, Humanities subject area? I am particularly interested in Fundamentals of Counseling, Human Resource Mgt, Foundations of Education, etc.

I have been researching this for quite a while using the search engine on here and degreeinfo.com and can't seem to find any answers. Sorry for the long post but I really need some help......

Thank You!!!

are there any exams (CLEP/DSST) that fulfill a "Business Communications" class? please help! my college screwed me over so i'm really trying to find ways to prevent delaying my graduation

thanks guys!

Does anyone have tips for U.S. History I?

I plan on taking this during "Spring Break", but am wondering if I need more time to prep. I understand the REA book is good for this exam along with Don't Know Much About History(?). The search engine on this forum seems to have more info for HIST II than I. Has anyone successfully taken this one? How would you compare it to II?

I saw that Exelsior gives credit for GRE's, but does anyone know about the GMAT? I didn't see it mentioned. I plan to enroll at Excelsior in the next month or so.

I am going to do the Excelsior BS in Marketing (not officially enrolled yet), but I am trying to see if anyone has any good ideas for the 9 hours of required upper level marketing classes?

IC does not have study questions for American Literature or even English Literature. Has anyone taken this test and if so what did you use as a study guide?

Passed first Dantes on 03/01/07 BUS Law

How hard is this CLEP? Any advise on studying? Does Excelsior require essay? Amy

Just got back from passing Principles of Marketing. Scored a 58. I went through the IC stuff yesterday and manages to go thru each section one time. The test wasnt to bad. Alot of it was commonsense and could be figured out by isolating the words used in the question with the answer.

Next up, Business Law. Any comments on this one?

Well first a little short hisroty:

13 years hiatus from college
I have 110 credit hours earned over the years from 4 different schools
I recently decided to complete requirements for my Bachelors and continue on to pursue my Masters.
Started researching my options Sept 2006
Discovered the Big 3 and applied to TESC.
Found out about the FEMA courses, passed 11 Hours worth of courses
Later found out that they wouldn't count towards a TESC BA for my situation
Discovered Instantcert, tested it out, never took any test though
Re-evaluated and decided to re-enroll in a previous school that I attended Governors State University in their Board or Governors Program (now called School of Interdisciplinary Learning)
Had credits evaluated, 101 accepted, needing 19 upper level credits to graduate. Shooting for April 23rd, 2007 graduation.
Enrolled in 7 Credit hours January 2007 (Classes going great by the way)

March 6th 2007, re-registered with Instantcert.com. Studied 2 days for the Drug and Alcohol Abuse DSST.
Studied for 1 hour for the MIS DSST.

March 9th 2007 9:00am, drove to South Suburban College to take both test

9:52am - passed the Drug and Alcohol DSST with a score of 51 (passing is 49)

10:53am - passed the MIS DSST with a score of 52 (46 passing)!!!!!!!!

Now i'm not recommending that anyone try to study as little as I did and attempt to take these test, but I must say that I have no doubt that Instantcert is 100% responsible for me passing the Drug test, and probably 50% responsible for MIS (I work in IT, although a lot of the test material was external to what I do on a daily basis)

I am truly amazed how effective Instantcert is regarding these test. I have 2 more test that I need to take an pass in order to graduate. For these 2 however I have at least 4 good weeks to be able to study the material and I plan on studying much longer b4 taking these 2 test. One is Organizational Behavior and orignally I had planned on taking Business Law II, but now I'm wondering if I should take Civil War and Reconstruction instead, any suggestions on which would present an easier challenge?

Any either case I would like to say thanks to all on this forum that have posted useful information that has helped me in my pursuit.
