What's up with the Petersons?!

I did try that. The usernames and passwords I found didn't do any good in terms of access to the Peterson's exams. They must be limited to only certain logins.

I just went into this site and when it asked me to put in a library card (after clicking testing and education) I just clicked on "resources provided by INSPIRE" and it let me in. Click on Testing and Education again then College Prep Tools then CLEP or DSST.

Are you located in Indiana? For me (not in Indiana) it says this:

Your IP address is not recognized as being inside the state of Indiana. Please enter your username and password.

No I'm in New York. But they never ask me to put in a username and password: it's always logged on-I don't know why. I'm on my friend's computer who never used Peterson's so it can't be that I logged in to her username...
That is strange.

[Mian]

Yeah, strange. I guess the algorithm that checks the IP address is imperfect. Still, it's a big bummer because I really found those practice tests useful

That's the second time someone has said that in the last two days. It looks like they're closing access to that portal.

I'd like to fix this instead of just pointing someone to the DoD site. As I've mentioned before, unless you qualify to use the DoD portal you shouldn't use it. Doing so takes money away from those who do qualify.

Try this one instead: New Link this goes through another library and doesn't ask me for any card number.

Let me know if it does for you.

It doesn't work for me. It says my IP address is not recognized as one from Indiana, so I suppose that you have to be a resident. Thanks for your help!

I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm about to get buried in Emails. :leaving:

Ah well, I guess this is just motivation to make new practice tests. Maybe someone will find another link that works. Hopefully?

Those of us who don't pay Indiana taxes never should have had access to commercial resources paid for by the taxpayers of the State of Indiana. It was only a matter of time.

Hopefully you downloaded all of the study guides and tests in pdf files in anticipation of this inevitable outcome.

Of course you're right, and I wish I had downloaded the tests but alas I didn't.

How do you download it...maybe I can email it to you...
EDIT: nvm...it stopped working for me too I 'll try to see if it works on my friend's computer again tomorrow

From what I remember about how it was set up, it would probably involve a lot of clicking, copying and pasting. I could only review the questions with answers/explanations one at a time. So afaik there's really no easy way to download them or I'm sure I would have done it! I wouldn't expect you or anyone to go to all that trouble, though. I'm sure I can get by without them. Thanks tho!
