  Principles of Finance
Posted by: knucyt - 03-02-2006, 06:51 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Has anyone taken Principles of Finance and what resources did you use to pass this exam? How hard is it for the somewhat mathematically challenged?

I am looking to take this as well as the following over the next 4-5 months if it's possible. I am also in school at Strayer University doing 2-3 classes each qtr:

Business Law I
Intro to Psych
Human Resource Management
Intro to Sociology (anyone done this one?)
World Religions
Intro to Marketing
Macro or Micro Economics
Humanities
Fundamentals of Counseling

and a few more for electives.

I have CLEP'd: Intro to Computers, English, French (got 12 credits), & Prin. Mgmt so far. Used Instacert and 1 book ea. for intro to computers and Prin. mgmt. I like knowing my score immediately with the CLEP exams!

Thanks for any resource information/guidance on the above, especially Prin. of Finance and HR mgmt exams.

Can anyone out there in "Instantcert" land help me figure out if I can use "Here's To Your Health " Dantes test, to meet part of a science requirement. I need to find six credits in science that I can easily pass by testing out of.

Thanks!

  Upper Level Credits - Excelsior
Posted by: ThatPoshGirl - 02-26-2006, 10:37 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (11)

I've been downloading the various viewbooks from Excelsior in an attempt to put together a degree plan. I am going for a General Business degree. I want to earn most credits by examination and take a few (4 - 6) classes at the local community college. The thing that isn't clear to me is how many credits need to be upper level. The business viewbook shows that you need 12 upper level business credits but doesn't mention how many of your other credits need to be upper level. Does anyone have this info or do I have to wait until I've enrolled to find out?

Posted by: scottcop1 - 02-25-2006, 09:39 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

I wanted to create a thread for us to share our degrees and majors. Some of us might have similar interests and might even be able to provide a recommended exam or two to fulfill a requirement.

I have two Community College of the Air Force AAS degrees: 1) Criminal Justice and 2) Education and Training Management

Here's what I'm working on completing by the end of May/beginning of June.

BS double major-Excelsior College
Criminal Justice (this part finished) and Psychology
double minor in Administrative/Management Studies and Education

BS double major-Colorado State U-Pueblo
Sociology (Criminology-major emphasis) and Social Science

Complete an undergrad certificate in Applied Criminology on 29 April
Starting an undergrad cert in Hate and Bias Crimes in April
Geographical Analysis Profiling course in May to become nationally certified
Completing AF Squadron Officer School (SOS) via distance learning for OTS
Looking at a graduate cert in Forensic Criminology from UMass-Lowell online

Fourth baby due in June. Someone please mail me some extra time you have around the house...lol

  30 Credits - One Exam - I'm going for it!
Posted by: steelers - 02-24-2006, 12:27 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (7)

Today is the last day to register for the April 1st GRE Subject exams. They will not be offered again until Novemeber. I registered for the Psychology exam. If I score above the 80th percentile it will earn me 30 credits (12 lower and 18 upper). Not bad for a $130 investment. I have no Psychology background. I will be using/memorizing the Princeton Review Cracking the GRE Subject Exam - Psychology book, as well as the ETS book of Practice tests. Wish me luck!
