Personally, and as much as I hate filling in those evil little bubbles, I am actually hoping that my test center doesn't go computerized until after I am done taking all my DANTES exams.
I LIKE that the DANTES exams are untimed and that I don't have to worry about the clock. This is especially true on some of the more difficult exams.
So, for me, the race is on to complete my remaining DANTES exams BEFORE they switch to the online version.
I can't imagine trying to finish Principles of Statistics, Principles of Finance, Money & Banking, Soviet Union, Civil War etc., in under two hours. I usually take about three hours to complete the harder DANTES exams....and I enjoy being able to take my merry old time!
Am I alone in this?

Hi Snazz,
First of all, I'm glad to hear you made it through the Principles of Finance exam okay and that all that studying paid off! That's how I felt too when I was taking the exam...that the time I spent studying and LEARNING was worth it.
As for the DANTES becoming computerized, I am with you! I want to get my DANTES tests done before they do that as well, because I still need to take Statistics and the Soviet Union one, and I know those will take some time to do.
Do you or anyone know of how easy/hard the Human/Cultural Geography test is? I don't think I've ever seen it mentioned in the forum. Just wondering, since that's one more DANTES I need to take.
