  Advice on what order I should take the CLEP/DSST
Posted by: Old Rusty Pipe - 01-04-2007, 09:41 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (9)

I am attempting to max out the number of credits that Saint Leo University will take. This is coincidentally the exact number of classes I can test out of that I still need. I am tring to figure out the best order to take these in, or if not a specific order than which tests I should group together.

I've already taken Principles of Management, Human Resources Management, and Organizational Behavior. I found that there was a lot of overlap between these three tests.

I passed the Principles of Statistics yesterday and was wondering what I should focus on next.

The tests I still need to take are:
-Management Information Systems
-Principles of Finance
-Principles of Accounting
-Principles of Marketing
-Introduction to Business Law
-Macroeconomics
-Microeconomics
-American Literature

Any ideas or suggestions?

  American Gov't Experience??
Posted by: rarossi - 01-04-2007, 12:24 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (10)

I am planning to take the test for American gov't very soon. I know all of the instantcert questions (score around 97%) and I took the 3 practice peterson tests and scored 54, 54 and 57.. I am confused on why I would be getting 100% on instantcerts questions and so low on the peterson tests?????? Which one of these is more accurate towards what I should expect on the test?

And is instantcert enough to pass this test alone? I have read another thread where someone said it is not.. But Instantcert says it is.. any advice???

PS: Does anyone know where I can find the 50 free practice questions for american government that college board gives out? I remember seeing a link on some thread in this forum, but now I cannot find it..

Thanks so much for your help!

  Freshman College Comp w/essay
Posted by: mom2school - 01-03-2007, 09:16 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (13)

I am looking for any information on the freshman college comp w/essay. Has anyone taken the exam with essay? I am trying to get an idea of how difficult the essay will be.

I have not been in school for 20 somethings years. I am the Director of Finance for the company I work for. I have been there for 5 years and now they come to me and say that I have to have a BA (preferably MBA). I have to get this degree in less than 1.5 years.

Thankfully I can test out of most of the accounting and economics courses that I will be required to take. Essay writing worries me though. If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

  Study guide necessary for Research Methods?
Posted by: dgreenes - 01-02-2007, 07:09 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (5)

I did a search on Research Methods which I've pushed off untill the ic cards for it were ready. I noticed a couple of ppl saying that the study guide that comes along with the Experimental Psychology textbook is a very good resource for its glossary and practice tests. I went to barnesandnobles.com and found the cheapest used one for twenty something dollars besides shipping. Any opinions on how necessary or worth it this purchase would be? (I ordered an older edition of the textbook for eight something).

I thought I would see if anyone had taken any courses through Excelsior. I was thinking of taking one or two of their online courses but how do you take tests? Do you have to have a proctor? Just wondering if anyone would happen to know.

  Excelsior Written English Requirement
Posted by: AMPawlak227 - 01-01-2007, 08:41 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi -

I plan on enrolling in Excelsior. I'm currently working temp-to-perm at a company with tuition reimbursement (yeah!!) so by waiting a few months to enroll I can have someone else pay for it. Smile I have the course catalogs from Excelsior and I'm working my way through the applicable CLEPs.

I took the CLEP English Comp w/Essay exam before I learned of Excelsior. I know that this does not satisfy Exelsior's written english requirement. However, my community college accepts it and placed 3 credit hours of English Composition on my transcript. Does anyone know if Excelsior will backtrack that credit to the CLEP exam or just accept it off the transcript and allow it to satisfy the requirement?

Thanks!
