Anybody know where to find current pass rates for CLEP and DSST? Most of what I have found has been a few years (3-5) old. Just curious as to what might be the most efficient use of time for a few electives I have avaiable.

I don't know of any more recent pass rates; I hope someone else can help you, there.

I noticed, though, that you don't have any of the easily-stacked psychology credits in your signature. CLEP Sociology followed by CLEP Psychology is very doable with IC and can easily lead to DSST Lifespan Development or CLEP Human Growth & Development, CLEP Educational Psychology, and likely even DSST Fundamentals of Counseling. Since you've taken Social Sciences and History, you should find most of the IC material for Sociology and Psychology review.

Since you've already taken Principles of Supervision, CLEP Principles of Management is supposed to be very similar (still, do the flashcards!) and both provide a good foundation for DSST Organizational Behavior and possible DSST Human Resource Management. (Take with a grain of salt as I've taken none of these, but IC has flashcards for all of them.)

You're down to the last few electives - awesome!
BS Literature in English cum laude, Excelsior College
currently pursuing K-8 MAT, University of Alaska Southeast (42/51).

IC works! Credits by exam to date: 63

CLEP: A&I Lit (72), Am Gov (69), Biology (58), Intro to Ed Psych (73), Intro Psych (77), Intro Soc (72), US History I (69)
DSST: Astronomy (65), Civil War (63), Intro Computing (463), Environment & Humanity (70), Foundations of Ed (68), USSR (54)
GRE: Literature in English (60th percentile / 18 cr)
