I feel for you, i know what it's like to fail a clep, i just failed biology with a 45-stinks doesn't it? The way i keep going even when something doesn't go my way is a quote from my sisters 6th grade teacher. "It matters not if you try & fail & try & fail again; it matters if you try & fail & fail to try again". i hope to hear some good news from u soon. best of luck!!! I know that u can do it.

Hey Man, Don't Give up! Walk your dream!

How bad, do YOU want it?

It does not matter if you fail a test. Get up and keep studying. Keep trying. Keep going.

The key is to keep going.

Failure is stopping and standing still.....as long as you are still pushing ahead YOU are NOT a failure.

Again.....how bad do you want it?

We get what we want out of life. How bad do you want to get there?


If you want it bad enough, no matter how many times you "fail" you will get it. Don't give in.

Like Everyone else stated before don't give up. I'm 28 and a big procrastinator when it comes to school. This is why I still don't have a college degree. I took principles of management (55) and marketing (56) and didn't put too much effort into studying. I did fail biology with a 49 but took it a year later and pass with a 60. Now I plan to take pre-clac, calc, financial accounting, Business math, money and banking, and 2 more exams that I haven't figure to take yet. I am going to NLU this fall and hope to graduate in 2011 with a BS MIS. For the pre-calc, I plan to review algebra, geometry, and trig, so I can pass with a high score. I have to stay away from the INTERNETS so I can focus on this goal as I have nothing else going on in my life right now. I feel that I am halfway there in taking my studies seriously. I read ehow and other books about how to study in college, but in the end its really up to you. So sometimes you need to look a the big picture and figure out what is affecting your main goals. Google is a big resource on everything but if used in a wrong way, it can make you big procrastinator. As for me I have to get this degree as I'm getting too old anyway but that's another topic. Good luck.

Another thing I notice is that people here are great at supporting each other so don't feel shy in posting about whatever you need to know. I think you need to do a search in the forums first to see if the question has been already asked.

I am in my last term as a senior in college with 18 credits left, which are all filler electives. I need 1 lower elective, and 5 upper. My Clep Dsst choices are:
Rise and Fall of Soviet Union
Substance Abuse
Civil War Recon.
Money and Banking
Management info systems
human resource mgmt

I took 2 lower level cleps ( Amer govt, and Princ of mgmt) and failed

Any Ideas? Suggestions? I either can do this or enroll in a regular university for 18 credit hours with these courses as electives in the spring.

Help!
