Just thought I would let the board know that I passed the CLEP exam, Introduction to Educational Psychology with a 69!! The exam was more difficult than I anticipated, but I passed.

I would advise you take Human Growth and Development prior to Educational Psychology ( great deal of overlap with these two exams) and use the REA books for these two exams.

This makes 5 CLEP's I have taken and passed in 9 weeks. Now I am ready for some upper-level DANTES, TESC, and ECE exams.

Most report that there is a ton of questions on the Stalin and Lenin eras. Has anybody used the sparknotes on these guys for the USSR exam?:

SparkNotes: Joseph Stalin
SparkNotes: Vladimir Lenin

Of course there is also the Russian Revolution sparknotes:
SparkNotes: The Russian Revolution (1917–1918)

Is there anyone who is attending or planning to attend tesc for a Bachelors in Business? if so, what are you taking to satisfy your upper level requirements? I am still waiting for them to get back to me, but I would like to get a head start in the meantime. Any advice or direction you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance.

I have decided to take the Excelsior Ethics exam and wanted to know if anyone has taken this exam and could offer some advice on study materials. I plan on using IC and the Harper Collins guide for College Ethics.

Also, I believe the exam is multiple choice. Does anyone know how many questions there are for this exam?

Hello,
I was going to enroll at Excelsior and cant seem to confirm if they are Title IV or not. I am not sure if my job will pay if they are not. Anyone know about this? Also if you are a UPS employee did they pay for Excelsior?
Thanks

I have about 30 or so FEMA exams complete, which I planned to credit bank at TESC. I'd like to take the English Comp w/ Essay CLEP exam and add that to the credit bank as well...

Question is, will TESC convert the CLEP exam to English 101 and 102? So that if the transcript was then sent to Excelsior, they will accept as is (and satisfy the WER) or would they force me to do the ECE English Comp exam...

My Background on the issue:
I've applied to COSC so they can review my "collage" of college credit earned when I was in the Marines (also attended several Navy and Air Force schools), the numerous IT certifications and even a few programming courses... The FEMA exams were done to cover CEUs for my membership with the American College of Forensic Examiners (I do computer security and forensics on the side, not the way cool CSI stuff you see on tv , although I'd be open to the Criminal Justice track)

But after finding this forum, I'm a bit perplexed on what to do. I know I need the CLEP core tests, but am waiting eagerly to hear back from COSC on what my first degree can be in the shortest amount of time. Any comments would be appreciated...

Hello to all. I am a new member of IC and was hoping to get some valuable advice. Unfortunately, I put myself in an unenviable position that requires me to obtain 12 credits within the next two weeks. Listed below are the CLEP exams I am studying for, and in the order I believe I should be taking them, but I'm not sure if this is the "right/optimum" order:

Psychology, Intro - 3 credits
Sociology, Intro - 3 credits
Human Growth & Development - 3 credits
Social Sciences & History - 6 credits

Any advice would be very helpful. Thanks.

Is there a way on IC that we can print out the flashcards so we have the info on paper? I'm at college and have a lot of dead hours and I was thinking that if I could take these with me than I could study without internet access while I'm waiting for classes.
