Yeah I'm bragging but I wanted to post this since there is a lot of focus on passing these tests instead of mastering the content. I studied my but off for each test save marketing and the computer exams since i work in that world but i really feel like I have learned a lot from my clep studies and that I am prepared for graduate level course work in business.
Id like to see more posts bragging about high scores but reflecting on the hard work necessary to get that score.
At the end of the day a pass is a pass though so if you get a low score move on and study harder next time.

Good job Ryoder!! Yes, you should brag. There is a lot of effort that goes into getting those high scores. It shows that not only did you study, you were also good at teaching yourself the material.

I didn't know there was a CLEP that gives more than 6 credits. You might want to check and see if NYU duplicates CLEP credit. If not, you can get another 12 by taking the CLEP. Or, you can take the ACTFL French exam, which I know does not duplicate the CLEP (and maybe does not duplicate NYU either?), at least at Excelsior.

I'm almost done my credits...I don't need any extra and Adelphi will probably not even give all the credits from the French CLEP even if it doesn't duplicate the NYU test...I'm only getting 3 out of the 6 credits for Biology.
