I'm new here, came from a similiar forum after I kept reading about IC :-) and I've signed up to help study.
I'm curious how people manage their time. Do you study for more than one exam at a time, for how long on avg?
My current situation has me working, volunteering (not negotiable b/c it is necessary for grad school) kids, taking one class online now, soon to be two, and need to study for and take the GRE within a few months. I took a free ETS GRE as a diagnostic and I would need to improve by at least 200 points, mostly in quant.
I also need to try to take one more online class and likely 4 exams if I can't take that class (which is 6 credits) I may need to take as many as 6 exams. All of this needs to be completed by mid December.
So, how do you guys break all of this down to set your goals? Anyone willing to share? Oh, and I've never taken a CLEP or DSST before, so I don't really have a clue what to expect other than multiple choice.
TIA
