Well...after eight long years I have finally achieved my goal of a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration!!! My final TECEP grade posted yesterday and I am sooooo thrilled!!hilarious hilarious
Thank you to everyone who offered help, advice, support and encouragement. Distance learning can be a lonely road but this board and others like it have been a God-send.
For those of you who are just beginning your journey...it's well worth the effort - take those bold steps forward and just keep putting one foot in front of the other until you reach your goals. For those who have been at this for a while - success is just around the corner, don't look back.

Thanks for your well-wishes!
My best advice is to not let the initial inability to answer the flashcard questions deter you. You're not supposed to be able to answer them right off the bat. Just keep drilling, drilling, drilling. And, make sure you have the questions set up to randomize the order, otherwise you'll start knowing what question comes next and will end up memorizing the order of the answers instead of the knowing which answer goes with which question.
Best of luck!
