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.
