Has anybody used their Bachelors' degrees from TESC or Excelsior to proceed into Master's programs at other schools? If so, what programs, any problems transferring the degree, etc.?

now that i'm done with my first exam, i need to move on with my next one, which is...info sys. and comp analysis >.<
i'm not sure what to think about this exam b/c even though the general consensus is that this exam is "easy", i've seen in recent posts that people aren't happy with their results or are surprised about their score. so can anyone tell me what other materials you use besides IC? ie: which additional books? programs? ...so far i only have IC, collegeboard book, and the free peterson exams. but i'm not sure if that's enough to pass the exam.
thanks so much! =]

| Western Civ I? |

Hey,
I'm starting to study for Western Civ I soon. I was wondering if there were any tips that could rise to the occasion. To give you an idea of my learning style, for US Hist 1 & 2 I made flash cards and did practice tests as much as possible. Reading through the REA just didn't seem to cover all the concepts, maybe it's just me. If anyone has taken this or knows of any good resources, show initiative and help a man.
Thanks

| Sat Adulthood & Aging Today w/Progress Update |

I sat Adulthood & Aging today, it was a very long test, 150 questions, and I feel IC set me up for a pass (I hope anyway). I knew the material very well but the questions were worded very cleverly. It always pisses me off when I see questions worded like this as it appears as though they are inventing ways to trick you up verses testing you on the knowledge at hand; I guess this is the educated way. Definitely know the researchers and what they did, a lot of questions on them; the other 75% of material was spread out. On most of the questions I wasn't sure on, I was able to discount two answers almost immediately, so 50/50 guess was left.
I sat World Pop last week and retook the ECE HRM again, as with the first time I took it, it didn't seem too bad. I guess I'll see if I mismarked or I'm just an idiot when it comes to HRM; time will tell.
I have Gerontology next week, there was not another test date this week and I want to take full advantage of the NEW study guide that IC has put out. I figure I could use a good score to make up for the failed HRM...... Does anyone know if passing an exam you previously failed will wipe out the other score?
I also found out today that my education office on base has to order both the Abnormal Pysch and ECE writing eaxms and they won't be in until Nov 30th!!!! Plus, I'll have to wait a long time for them to be hand graded (45 days?), this puts a serious cramp on the graduation plan. I wanted to be done with this crap by the end of Dec
Anyway, I'll keep all in the loop as the test results come in. Good luck to all, it's good to see all of the degree completions, it gives me hope! Lee

Hi All,
I'm Heather. I am new, but have been a forum lurker for a bit. I think instacert is amazing, and this board is a wonderful resource!.
I took and passed my first CLEP today, English Comp without the essay, with a 59. I wish I could have gotten a 60 or so, but I got what I needed for credit, and that is all that matters.
I have 30 credits from previous work, 12 credits I have either completed or am in the process of completing, and am looking to get at least 18 via CLEP
Coming up shortly are:
Bio
Social Science & History
and either History II or Intro to Psych.
I am in the process of getting a BA from AMU, but coming from a B&M school I got messed around with some of my gen. eds, so here I am. :-).
I felt so good today, getting 6 credits in less than 2 hours, it IS addicting!!

| Question about Duplicate Credit |

Does anyone know if the Dantes "Principles of Supervision" will be considered duplicate credit with CLEP "Principles of Management" at Charter Oak? They seem very similar in content. Having taken the CLEP, i feel I can easily pass the Dantes without any additional studying, but I wouldn't want to waste my time if I won't get any real credit for it.
Thanks!

I am scheduled to take Clep Math (general) on Thursday at 3pm. Assuming that Math is not my strength and my main goal is just to pass, how good are my odds when I score 55 on Petersons? I'm sure that can be written in some kind of equasion, but none come to mind, :confused: the brain is fried. Any feedback?
