  Penn Foster proctored exams
Posted by: Ronin - 01-06-2008, 03:49 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hello,

Does your proctor use a timer, or is there something setup through the Penn Foster website?

I just passed two dante tests last week and now I am getting ready to prepare for my next test. I was thinking of something in business or management. I have already passed Intro to Business, Supervison, Human Resource Managment, Business Math, and Principles of Mangement. I am trying to decide which would be the easiest between...

Business Law
Organizational Behavior
Marketing

or any others that someone could suggest.

  Saga of the missing final
Posted by: jec959 - 01-05-2008, 07:06 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (10)

So I still havent taken the Penn Foster retest for the tech math course I prep for it wait and wait call my proctor call Penn foster (they make you wait 3 weeks after the exam is mailed to resend or find out what happened to it). The first exam was mailed Nov 21st to the wrong state, waited my 3 weeks they investigated and resent the exam dec 12th waited my three weeks again they investigated said oh we had the wrong address and we just got it returned by the post office. the 3rd attempt to mail the exam was supposed to happen Friday. The odd thing is that the financial management and original tech math exam went to the correct adddress. I am definitely stuck in the mudd here as I have an incomplete for the course until I take the exam. My plan was to take managerial accounting with them but they wont send the course until I take this exam. I forced myself to take the american Lit clep in December so the month of December wasnt a total waste. Sorry for the long post I am a little aggravated. I have this retest, financial accounting (clep), managerial accounting, statistics and Business policy left but don't feel like I am ever going to get finished. At this rate I will have forgotten the entire algebra course. Okay enough whining anyone have any suggestions on the order to take my remaining classes? My thought was to work on Financial & managerial accounting at the same time, do the Business policy tecep, and finish up with stats (I hate math).

Most of the experiences I've researched through this forum reference Excelsior and TESC, but I rarely hear about COSC.

Would anyone like to share their experiences with COSC?

  I'm finished also

Thanks to IC and the forums I was able to complete 27 credits to my degree. Today I completed General Anthropology with a 61. This was my lowest grade but alas it is enough. I believe this was the most difficult test to take based solely on IC. There was much more information that was needed to be known that what was in the flash cards. I will post some specifics in the specific exam forum.

The only gotcha was the public speaking in which I had exceeded the five minutes. Oh well; I am going to take that at college this next 8 weeks and I will be done with my BS degree in information and computer science. This has been a long time coming.

Thanks to all

Doug

  Penn State
Posted by: cookderosa - 01-04-2008, 01:25 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

I check the Penn State world campus site now and again, and I noticed they are launching 2 new degrees. BA and BS in Psychology- totally online. There are some barriers- first it's expensive at around $400 per credit. (your looking at nearly $50,000 plus books) Second, they take CLEP and DANTES- but only in a very limited capacity- they do have a CLEP policy chart. Third, if you want the BA (as opposed to the BS) you need 12 foreign language credits :eek: I think it said 36 credits had to be through them, the rest could transfer (I would be careful, it is very specific about transfer) Anyway, certainly a prestigious degree option.

  I passed my CLEP humanities!! Thanks to you guys.
Posted by: dundeemania - 01-04-2008, 11:49 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (6)

I passed my CLEP humanities!!!!

I got a 65, and I thought the Test was pretty easy. A lot of questions regarding paintings and sculptors. I have now graduated!!!

I just wanted to thank you guys. I have been on here for about two weeks and I cannot begin to explain how much Instacert has helped me. I have been lurking and found the information on here very very useful. I also need to thank Lubee for her/his study guide.

Thank you guys once again, and please let me know if anyone of you need any help with the Humanities exam.

Another bit of advice: There is no harm in studying a bit deep into the most famous works. Sparknotes would be quite useful. Look into things like Shakespeare plays, Cantebury tales and some of Beethoven's stuff. It might help and definitely not hurt.
