I am taking this exam in exactly one month. Any pointers and suggestions. I was originally slated to take the CLEP Intro, but my university will not take that as a credit in my Degree program. Any help would be greatly appreciated hilarious

Just curious if anyone knows if Ed phychology is counted as applied pro at Excelsior? I need 1 more Clep for all LL and I know Intro phy would satisfy it but would rather take Intro Ed phy. (I can't take intro Ed if its applied pro)
I know its better to check with Excelsior first but I get a responce back much faster from you guys. (Still waiting on Excelsior from other queries since Friday)

Thanks.

I am preparing for the Civil War exam. I am scheduled to take the exam on 8/30. I have been mainly using IC and the Rudman Book. They don't seem to cover the same material. Can anyone who has taken the exam advise me on whether to focus my time on IC or the Rudman book. I am ultimately trying to study both equally, but am scheduled to take this test next week, and would like to focus most of my study time on the more valuable of the two. I have to allocate my time wisely, as I am also taking a seated class, an online class, and working full-time.

Thanks in advance...

Does anyone have any tricks to remember the statistics formulas? I keep getting the formulas mixed up. From what I read the exam writers do mean things like use the wrong formulas to get the incorrect answers on the exam.

Additionally do I need to remember the tables or will they provide them during the exam? I've read a bunch of posts but I'm still a little foggy on the issue.

Anyone else having trouble getting into the Peterson test pages?

I just wanted to see if any others feel the same way. Sometimes, especially when I have 2-3 dantes that day I go nuts from filling out all my personal info in those bubbles. Anyone have the same experiance?

I am scheduled to take the Biology CLEP this coming Friday and am worried as it is a lot of information to process. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!

I was able to have the Information Literacy requirement waived at COSC, that's one class I won't have to take. It only took a little grovelling and a marginally crafted document along with my resume. Now if I can only get them to waive the remaining 42 credits...

I went ahead and took the test and I can say IC is all you need for this one. I do not have any prior experience with business systems but I do research and build PCs so I had basic knowledge of computers.

This is my main point/contribution towards studying for this test. Do not do the Peterson's Practice tests. Whoever wrote them should be fired, immediately. These practice tests were so far from the actual I would swear they were for a different test. I know this will not be a popular theory here, but in my opinion, they did more to undermine my confidence of material I had learned and made me waste additional time studying/practicing for material not at all covered on the official test. I think that I saw one question related to the practice tests.

Anyways I'd say its close but should be a pass. I'm off to the mountains of Southern Germany for a little R&R then will attack another one, only have 7 more to go. Lee

During the report a former Secret Service agent was doing a handwriting analysis of an employment application that Karr had prepared in Thailand and the note found at the crime scene in the Ramsey house.

Here's the connection: The line that was shown from the employment application for analysis was "REGENTS COLLEGE, ALBANY, NY - BACHELOR OF SCIENCE."

Excelsior was formerly known as Regents up until just a few years ago. Kind of creepy to think that this wacko went down a similar (educational) path as many of us are today. Let's just hope that's where the similarities end!!![/COLOR][/SIZE]
