Thought I shared some positive news.

I managed to pass the Clep Biology exam today following many weeks of study. If you have any doubts about investing a couple bucks and joining IC put those thoughts behind you. I needed every resource I could get my hands on for this one and IC proved to be a great help. I also used REA, Pass Your Class, and a host of DVD study clips. In addition I read through this forum and visited many of the web sites fellow forum members suggested. The key for me was preparation. I hated giving up this last weekend, especially given it was Labor Day, but I'm glad I continued to study until Test day.

Congrats on your pass! Glad the motivation to study over the holiday weekend was worth it. Seems that is a tough one and I am not sure I want to tackle it for the science class I will need. I am thinking astronomy instead.

It's tough enough giving up your whole weekend to study for an exam but a three-day holiday weekend is even worse!! Great job persevering through it! Congrats on your pass -- and Biology no less. That's a scary one for me. :eek:
Keep up the good work. What's next?

Thanks to all for their support. I usually don't toot my own horn but I was almost giddy after this pass.
I'm back down to earth and focused on the next hill, this time English Lit.
Thank you again.
