  Excelsior and FEMA
Posted by: BMWGuinness - 01-22-2008, 05:18 PM - Forum: [ARCHIVE] Excelsior, Thomas Edison, and Charter Oak Specific Discussion - Replies (11)

I submitted the form to FEMA to send my transcripts to TESC, and noticed you could send to 2 places with 1 form, so I sent to Excelsior as well.

Now, I have a FEMA record of received trancripts with Excelsior. Don't think it really means much, but you never know.

  Heath Ledger found dead in NYC
Posted by: BMWGuinness - 01-22-2008, 05:12 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (3)

Heath Ledger found dead in NYC - Yahoo! News

Quote:NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence in a possible drug-related death, police said. He was 28.

NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said Ledger had an appointment for a massage at the Manhattan apartment believed to be his home. The housekeeper who went to let Ledger know the masseuse was there found him dead at 3:26 p.m.
The Australian-born actor was an Oscar nominee for his role in "Brokeback Mountain" and has numerous other screen credits.

I believe The Dark Knight is in Post-Production

Has anyone taken either of these two tests? I would be grateful for any feedback that could be provided. I'm looking down the home stretch with 9 more credits to go and hope to test out of all of them.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

  IC for Praxis I Math?
Posted by: cinderly - 01-22-2008, 12:45 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

Has anyone taken the PPST Praxis in Mathematics and used IC to prepare?

Once I'm done with two of my classes, I plan to take the three-test Praxis I series (Reading, Writing w/essay, Mathematics) and am doing an excellent job of working myself up over these tests. I mean, it's not like my chance to take the next step toward my long-held dream rests on passing these tests or anything. Rolleyes

I'm not worried about the Reading test -- it's mostly comprehension. A&I Lit lite from what I've gathered. Writing will require basic grammar review and a few practice sessions with a timer and stupid essay topics drawn from a hat. Math, though. Eep! It's been several years since my last math class and I'm skeered.

The paper-based test (which I will choose for math) is 40 questions in 60 minutes. No calculator allowed. (I have a tendency to make computational errors. This is a problem.)

Here's the breakdown:

[INDENT]I. Number and Operations (13 questions)
II. Algebra (8 questions)
III. Geometry and Measurement (9 questions)
IV. Data Analysis and Probability (10 questions)[/INDENT]

Will the CLEP College Mathematics flashcards be good review for this one? Anyone? Bueller?

  Not sure what to do.
Posted by: johnysc430 - 01-22-2008, 12:21 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

I'm trying to get a BS in Liberal Arts from EC.

They received my transcripts from Empire State College and they said it would take 3 weeks for them to evaluate them and get back to me.

In the In term I'm not sure what exams to schedule and take. I'm not really sure if the ones I've taken would apply to my degree plan. I'm hoping they will lol


Here's the list

Abnormal Psych
World Population
Intro to computing
Intro to Business
Personal Finance
Business Math
Intro to World Religions
Drug & Alcohol Abuse
American Government
Here's to your health

I have World Religion ECE test Scheduled and I have US History 1&2 Scheduled.

Going forward I'm not sure what exams to schedule and I don't know how my credits would apply.

Any input would be helpful.

Has anyone had any luck with getting credit hours for the Project Management Institute's Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. I checked with ACE and it's not one they list.

Thanks.

  Taking my first 2 tests today

I feel ready but I am a little nervous just because they are the first ones and I'm not entirely sure what to expect. I'll let everyone know how I did when I am done. Hope everyone has a good day.

  Dantes test - alcohol and drug abuse
Posted by: taylorjordan - 01-21-2008, 09:11 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (13)

I just finished my business administration program though the University of Phoenix online and I need 3 credits of humanities, and 6 credits of social science and then I graduate. I just signed up for this academy and just wanted to ask whether these study flash cards really help you on the test. I am very skeptical and worried about taking the test. Can anybody answer this, and give me some feedback on any Dantes test they have taken after using these study guide questions. Thanks!!!

  Random Guessing...
Posted by: Shadowless - 01-21-2008, 07:40 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (16)

I'm just curious, has anyone ever taken a test and did more then 75% of the test with straight guesses? And if so, what was your end score?

I am thinking about taking a dante, just a random one that I don't need and spending 15mins on it just guessing out of curiousity to what my score would be.

Does anyone have any advice on how to guess, ie picking the longest explanation, picking all answer "C's, looking for key words in the question ect...

Before you ask, I do get to take these exams for free, and I would only be doing this after I take an exam that I have actually studied for and would just do it afterwards for fun.

I'm trying to knock this out in the next three weeks and am looking for someone else who is doing the same. Looking for someone to bounce questions off of and for mutual accountability, encouragement, study advice, etc.

Let me know if you're interested. Thanks.
