Hi All, I have finished my degree! My graduation is on December 11th. I started back in January of 2013 taking 4 classes that year through TESC. After I finished that final class I talked to my advisor at TESC that as this pace, I wouldn't finish till 2020!! She told me about CLEP and DSST and sent me an email with some info on them. I did several google searches and stumbled upon Instantcert. After checking it out I signed up and the first post I saw was a DONE post. I read it and it sounded like that person had a similar background and it really helped me get pumped to try CLEPs and DSSTs. I took my first DSST January 2014 and passed. Over the next 22 months I was able to knock 90 plus credits. It wasn't always easy and there where several times I wanted to quit and never take another test. I did take some breaks but always came back. If I can do it Anybody can do it. Stick with it! I want to thank everybody that has posted on the exam feedback and answered questions that I would post. Best of luck to everybody on the journey. THANKS!!!
