The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." ~Theordore Roosevelt this is such a great quote, thanks for sharing.

I needed three credits to in science to complete my AS Degree. I planned on studying and take the Enviroment and Humanity DSST. Since I assumed it would be easier then the BIO exam.
Has anyone else taken the Environment and Humanities DSST test using only IC. I've been reviewing the IC and ordered the Rudmans questions and answers. They are definately two different beasts. If Rudman's hold true to the exam then IC is way off the mark and is bare bones at best. Or it could be that Rudmans if way off the mark. I even went back thru IC and did comparisons. There is no way to answer even 10 percent of the questions using IC. Anyone have any insight.

I took Environment and Humanity and passed with an A. I used InstantCert and PassYourClass. I've used PassYourClass as supplemental study material for a number of tests, and think it's usually a waste of money. However, I think it was useful with E&H.

Chosin,
I also took E&H and passed with a 70 using Instantcert, and some additional research on Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a fantastic free resource for researching terms, names, concepts etc.

If you haven't taken College Algebra, I can help you out. I am NOT a star in math, but my college taught a class on line (you never have to go to the college) that was so easy, I couldn't help but pass with an A. hilarious
I think they have a 4 week summer class starting next week or so that is very doable. Let me know if you are interested or need more info.
Hang in there, you are SOOOO CLOSE!

Yeah .,.. what school was that? LOL
