Hey folks, I just wanted to share what a positive experience I had with InstantCert. I had nine units remaining to get my BS degree and decided to go the CLEP route. With the help of InstantCert, I was able to pass three CLEPS in 19 days (with great scores). Here are my results:
6/25/09 Principles of Management - Score 65
7/10/09 Introduction to Sociology - Score 67
7/13/09 Introduction to Educational Psych - Score 64
So, I basically saved around $2,000 and an entire semester of school. I could not be more pleased.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL !!
~Missy

Yes, it does save you some money and headaches and, of course time. I used this site when I was obtaining my ASN in Nursing, and now as I go forward with obtaining my BHS in Management.
Yes, thanks instacert!!

I too have had great success with IC. I only wish I found them sooner! Maybe they should do more advertising or search engine ranking! If another member hadn't told me about it on another board I never would have found them. Why keep such a good thing secret?

Good to hear that the Sociology IC cards were useful. I'm taking that one next and the textbook has so much in it. Nice to have it condensed a bit on IC. Of course, I'll keep at the text though. It's just very interesting....

Great job on your scores -- but I think you saved even more than $2,000! hilarious
Aren't CLEP tests great?

I just wanted to know did you need a textbook for Education Psy or was IC enough.
