Hey, Straydog, I'm sure that you did well also. sounds like you were pretty prepared. From what has been said on this forum, it sounds like the "curve" is pretty forgiving for this test. Smile

I've been waiting on my grade for "Rise & Fall" and I checked today to see when Excelsior received my transcript from DANTES. They just received it yesterday, after I took it on Dec 12th!
Guess I shouldn't complain. It’s been almost a month to the day from when I took the test, which also includes two holidays in-between, so it’s actually fast. (Usually I get the results back in two weeks) I'm just getting anxious about my score. Hopefully, I'll be getting the congrats email from Excelsior within the next couple of days.

I only scored a 46 (passing 45)!:o Whew.......... Well, I was hoping I'd do a lot better then this, but unfortunally I did not know the material as well as I thought. However, it's a pass and 3 UL credits, so I won't complain too much.
Two reasons why I think I did poorly. First, I did not concentrate on my studies as much as I should, and second I had to delay this test twice because of the military. If you're going to take this test, BE WELL PREPARED.
