So anyways, I need some serious help with collage. I wanted to get done in 2 years but my mom now say that's impossible at the rate i take tests (which is one every 2 to 3 weeks). I already study 2 hours a day. I guess what i need now is a list of really easy tests that i could take in less than a week of studying. I'm taking psychology and sociology next after western civ 2. And i know a lot about both so i was hoping i would only have to study a little for them. Any advice would be well appreciated.

Look on the General Education Discussion and do a search. There are several such tests. Best wishes!

I agree with Southron. Also, it really depends on what exams you need for your degree.

I am not sure I agree with your mother. Usually the minimum credits earned is 3 per exam, and you take one exam per two-three weeks. Let's say you only take 3 credit exams (some will be more) and that you take 2 exams per 5 weeks. That would put you on a pace to take 20 exams per year at 3 credit hours each (I am being conservative here) and that works out to 60 credits per year, unless you take some 6 credit cleps, which would boost it up even more. That 60 credits per year comes out to a bachelor's degree in two years!

The rush you ask.... is my parents. Well mostly my mom... my dad doesn't care just as long as i get it done. They both skipped out of school to get married. And have been living that way ever since. They say they want a better life for me than they had. I guess that's true. My mom has these dreams of grandeur for me i guess. i would just love to be a normal teenager on summer break again. This year i only get 2 weeks off from school all of the other time i have to work on school. Even then she want more from me, Her latest request is that i get a job working some where. Im sorry this sound more like a rant than an anwser.:confused:
