I just passed my last test, DSST Astronomy with a 62 and thatâs it. I am done. I started in this quest in â81 ââ82 and enrolled at Excelsior College with a grand total of 45.34 accepted hours towards a BS. 16 months and 25 CLEPâs, DSST and Excelsior exams later I have the required 76 hours for my diploma. GO GLOBES!!!!
Best of luck to all and thanks to all who have offered support and insight over the past 16 months on this site.
