  American Govt - ready?
Posted by: mom2LLL - 06-28-2006, 09:39 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (20)

OK, so I have been studying for this test and have gotten a lot of useful information from past posts, but I am very concerned that I am not ready.

I have taken two Peterson practice tests and scored 44 and 48 - this is what scares me. While I am taking these tests I always feel confident that I know the information and am always a little shocked by the score. I have never scored below 50 in any practice test before (except math). There also seems to be a lot of graphs in the practice test. Are there a lot on the actual test?

Well, I am suppose to take the test tomorrow at 3 PM and I am feeling very nervous. Studying is a challenge because I have 3 kids home from school. :eek:

Anyhow, I will just keep plugging away. Any advice is always welcome.

Thanks, Kim

  DANTES Business Law II
Posted by: snazzlefrag - 06-27-2006, 09:11 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (11)

Hi Everyone,

I am very tentatively considering tackling Business Law II at some point. Sadly, Instantcert doesn't yet cover this exam.

So for my own benefit as well as others, I wonder if we could put our heads together and fill this thread with feedback, advice, tips, tricks, and opinions on the Business Law II exam.

I haven't been able to find many online study resources for this particular exam either. So if anybody knows of any useful sites, or has notes, pdf's etc. to share, please speak up.


Here are the online resources I have found so far:

Thanks in advance for your input,

  Classes needed
Posted by: LYNCHD - 06-26-2006, 08:46 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (22)

Hi. I'm new to this web site. I 'm required to finish a social science, math, humanities and written/public speaking ASAP for a job requirement. I just took the sociology clep and think I did ok. Is instant cert enough to get me all these classes clepped? Any info would be much appreciated. I dont have that much time so I need to pass them all the first time. I'm debating which one to take next. I'm thinking one for the humanities credit. Which is the easiest?? I was looking at the ethics in america or world religions.

Thanks!

  ECE tests
Posted by: Criticalthinker - 06-26-2006, 06:58 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

I just found out that my college also takes ECE tests. I have to achieve a certain score or grade for my college's requirements to get credit.

However I can't seem to find a testing center that offers them in my area...Indiana.

I registered on the Excelsior site, but the part of the web site that lists testing centers is down.

As I understand it, theses tests are online, and results are sent immediately just like CLEPS?

Any advice on finding test centers. One site said that the centers used to be Sylvan technology centers?

Thanks,
CT

Friday when I went in to take my CLEP at our local community college the proctor hit me with a surprise. She said that I have to go in Monday(today) and talk with the registar of the school and register at the college before I can continue taking tests there. This floored me as I had asked before I went out there if they proctored for the community and not just students and was told yes. I watched very closely this time as she set up my computer for the test and noticed that she was having the results sent to our community college. I asked her about it and she said that is the way she is supposed to do it. I also noticed that "Do not send" was an option. I am wondering if that is what she should be choosing and am looking for any information from those of you who are more experienced before I go out to meet with the registar this afternoon. I think that I may be their first one from the community doing this so the more I know before I go the better.

Thank you in advance for your help,
Librevore

  Intro. Psychology
Posted by: Librevore - 06-26-2006, 12:27 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (34)

Hello everyone,

Now that I have a moment to catch up, here's the feedback for last Friday's test. This is one of the easier exams, I'm told, and after taking it I would agree. IC and looking up some of the terms or people at Wikipedia will be plenty.

There were 8 to 9 questions that dealt with knowing the different philosphers/psychologists and what they were connected with, ie. behaviorism, humanism, psychoanalysis, etc. A couple of questions layed out a scenerio and then asked you to match which psychologist would most likely have been involved.

On the version I had, there were about 3 questions that dealt with the structures and functions of the human eye, ie. cornea, retina, cones, rods, etc. Which one is connected to the ability to see color? Which is involved with depth perception? And so on.

There were easily 7 or 8 questions that dealt with learning. Understand classical conditioning, operant conditioning, observational learning, cognitive process, etc. The four cognitive stages should be memorized.

Hope this is helpful,
Librevore

  Penn Foster

I know that most of the threads here are CLEP/DANTES related, but sometimes one needs to take a course to complete their degree.

I am wondering if anyone here has ever taken a course from Penn Foster?
