Hi Everybody,

I just wanted to say thanks for the wonderful breadth of information given here and all the experiences by the users of each test.

Tomorrow I'm taking my first CLEP test - Principles of Marketing and I am extremely confident of the score I can achieve. Thanks to IC and the various other testing websites out there.

I'm not going anywhere for a while since I am just starting on test 1 of my 5 necessary tests to achieve my AS - Business from Excelsior, but just wanted to check in and tell everybody what a great help this forum has been as I continue my journey to getting my Bachelors degree.

You guys are the BEST!

Thanks for all the warms wishes everybody. I was able to score a [SIZE="3"]58 [/SIZE]on my first test! So excited to pass Principles of Marketing and update my signature!

YEA!

So I've already signed up for my future dates, I've got my laptop opened 30 minutes after finishing and beginning the next set of flash cards.

Just wanted to give everyone a thank you for being wished good luck! It definitely helped!
