I just added them up. From 3/23 to 4/22 I earned 21 credits towards a college degree. That just blows me away! I NEVER would have thought that was possible till I found this board a few months ago.
Reading the threads here and being inspired by the positive attitudes of the people here has motivated me to work towards something I always wanted for myself. I can't thank you guys, and ladies, enough!

Gaining college credits is a contagious disease around here.
Great Job!

I know what you mean codface, finding this website was one of the best thing that happened to me. It was just the support and motivation I needed to get the final credits for graduation. It's amazing how you get support from people you don't even know yet you share one common goal....
So far I am 3 for 3 since March 31st and I met my graduation deadline of June 7th!
Thanks to everyone...

Well done!
Finding this forum (and IC flashcards) has finally gotten me off the procrastination cycle and into hardcore study mode. May will be my test-taking marathon month.

Boy are they ever. The nearby Strayer only tests on Friday mornings, and start taking appointments on the Monday of the previous week (to test on April 24, you had to have called for an appointment on April 13). He said it's first come first served, and that this past month people had been leaving him voicemails just after midnight on Monday mornings in order to claim spots. Some test dates were fully booked with a wait list before he even got into the office! Poor guy sounded exhausted.
