ECE test no longer Free for Mil. What to do?
#1
Hello forum, i spoke with a rep from excelsior and was told that as long as i take an ECE before SEP 30,2011 they are free. Any time after that i would have to pay and then submit paperwork to get a refund from the Va:I need 12 upper level elective Credits as part of my Degree at Embry Riddle. I have been looking into ECE test and have noted that quite a few are upper level credits:For those who took Upper level ECE test. Which test do you feel are the easiest to take within a short amount of time and the IC flashcards are helpful enough to get a C. Embry Riddle counts them as a P/F so a C grade would be enough for me.
I was thinking of taking
Foundations of Gerontology (407)
Psychology of Adulthood & Aging (355)
Anny comments or PMs would be appreciated. Thanks

People don't live on this board and some of us, God forbid, actually have jobs! Anyway, the two you mentioned are so closely related that you can probably pass one right after the other on consecutive days, using IC only as a study resource. I also passed Research Methods in Psychology using only IC.

I agree. I have taken both of those exams and found them very doable. I got an A on POAA and a B on Gerontology with only about 20 hours of study time each. I do highly recommend the ECE practice exams if they are still offered for these two. Since these are theory based exams you will find the same scenarios on the practice exam and the real exam. This is a great time benefit and allows you to have already examined and know the scenario. These are both doable in your time frame. I also took several other ECE's which you can see in my signature line. Most of them are fairly straight forward. I didn't study for any of these for more than 20-30 hours. I did most of the psych exams back to back which helped a lot. Good luck.
