So if not following my other thread, i missed my original date (of 'two weeks') and have to appeal, there's a 60% chance i'll have appeal accepted (to have CLEP credit applied for spring credit, which raises me to sophomore, getting me $1000 more in loan), and i'm just trying to zoom thru as quick as possible.
I took the Modern States course on Marketing and got the pay-for free clep prep study guide on it which i'm going thru today because I don't learn as well by the Instant Cert method so far. : Just being asked and reasked doesn't help when I dont have anything to anchor the knowledge on, a verbal loop I can listen to while driving (havent listened to yet but hoping it's like challenge/response, asking a question, waiting a moment then giving the answer until i memorize the terms) will hopefully drill me better.
Looking at my options for 3 more credits I realize I potentially have two issues... one is that 'free clep prep' only has a few courses available/not every CLEP, such as Marketing (already bought), Management, Sociology, History of US 1, American Govt, and English Literature.
The other angle is that I need to take the Modern States course to reimburse my tuition and I don't know if others are as easy as the Marketing one. (which I literally whizzed thru in 4 hours real time with videos on 200%, taking notes, and getting 100% on all questions showing I knew the content) I don't know if the other courses are likewise self paced and would rather not start something I don't intend to finish. (esp when I see something about "9 months to finish a course you enroll in after which things are archived" and I assume I lose the ability to pick something else/cant disenroll if I don't like the content, and I assume i'm limited to 8 classes to choose from Modern States for their freebie voucher setup)
Any comments on which of the remaining five options that should be covered by BOTH places can be ran thru the quickest, assuming I don't have any more familiarity with content than a normal schmoe?
