  Finally done!
Posted by: Librevore - 01-29-2008, 09:42 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (16)

I took my last DSST on Nov. 22nd and it took almost a month for the results to reach Excelsior. Then another month or so for them to review my transcripts but this is it! They are conferring my BS on Feb.15th.

Thank you all so very, very much. I know I could not have accomplished over three years of college credit in a year and a half without the tools and support here at IC.

I'm attempting a career change and am applying to several Masters programs. We'll see what happens. Good luck to all of you who are still in the process. You CAN do it!

Alright I read that credits transfered from TESC Credit bank would be accepted to Excelsior.

Then I read that a loophole was closed

http://www.instantcertonline.com/forums/...ajors.html


What is the current status concerning the transferability of FEMA courses into Excelsior?

  Passed my First DANTES Today - and Second!
Posted by: GettinMyBA - 01-28-2008, 04:32 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (12)

Now I understand how it feels to get a passing grade and kill an entire semester's worth of work in a sitting! I took and passed my first two DANTES tests ever today - Criminal Justice and Fundamentals of Algebra. I feel so great about it that I couldn't wait to get home to set up one of those cool signature files that you guys all have!! hilarious

No need to do details here - I'm on my way to the exam specific board to post, but lemme say one thing.... Algebra was NO JOKE. I was so frustrated at my lack of knowledge, and really upset that I guessed at so many... I mean it - I guessed at least 45 questions (of the total 79) and I wasn't even narrowing down.... I guessed 'B' 45 times. I can't believe I passed... just barely with a 47 (the exact req'd pass score).

Thanks to everyone for all the help on the Criminal Justice! Instantcert and this board was all I used!! Now here's my sweet new sig file.....
