Finally! Wow what a journey. It's been a while since I posted anything on the forum in regards to my progress; however, I can now say--without equivocation--that I am done with my degree requirements [I just passed Business Ethics & Society(447!)].
Thanks to the great staff and community at IC!. Without you guys and gals, this processes would have never been possible.
Honestly, I thought it was too good to be true and I was reluctant at first but I thank the heavens that I stumbled upon this board and took that first CLEP nearly 2-years ago. To all those individuals that showed me support (too many names to call) I want to sincerely thank you. To all the cynics (I was one at the beginning) I encourage you to take that first $70 step, read my sig  , and get clepping!
