Studying for this test on Wednesday. Doing well on IC. I took the official clep parctice exam and only got 6 wrong. Scoring about 57 on the Peterson's they are pretty hard.

Did everyone else find that the Peterson exams were much harder than actual exam? I've noticed that in the past but the Humanities exams seem particularly hard and I know this subject matter better than other exams I've taken in the past. (or at least I thought I did).hilarious

Anyway, I just wanted to get some tips from those who have taken this exam. I've read all the threads in here. Some say the exam is easy and some say it is hard. I really want to pass since this would be may last exam and then I can graduate!

TIA.

I'm not sure in what order to pursue "Principles of Finance" & "Money and Banking." Should I get through Principals of Finance first? I've read "Money and Banking" is not among the easier DSSTs. Is it harder or easier than CLEP Principles of Accounting?

Ok I'm in a bit of a need to super cram biology. I'm graduating from Walden University and have only one math/science class course requirement remaining. Since I have already transfered a calculus class I must take a science. They have approved that either Natural Science or Biology CLEP will be acceptable. Now the rub. For me to graduate plus get into the MBA program for this term I must take the test before the end of this month - Oct 31st. Because it is my very last class and I have a 4.0 GPA they are going to accept a faxed copy and allow me to be accepted into the MBA program contigent upon the final transfer. Basically it will put me 3 months ahead on my MBA if I can pass this test by Oct 31st. It will also likely affect my final graduation day by at least 6 weeks.

I didn't find this all out until this past Wednesday and of course I started studying immediately. But I can see already this is going to be very, very tough to learn all this by Oct 31st. I've downloaded the Cliff notes, have the official CLEP study guide, Instant Cert, Petersons tests (haven't taken any yet), and of course the online biology book. So far I have probably 10 hours studying in and will of course study all weekend. My main problem is that I'm 39 and had my biology class in highshool 25 years ago. I remember nothing at all.

I'm going to go ahead and give it a shot. I will study all day today (Haloween party tonight that my wife is very excited about so I must go), and all day and night tomorrow. I work during the week of course so I'm expecting evening study during the week. I'm figuring I should get about 25-30 hours of "quality" study time. If I fail then I can study harder and take Natural Science in a few weeks or a month or whatever. I was curious if anyone else out there was able to cram biology into a few days study or if I'm just going to have an excercise in frustration. Any tips or suggestions are much appreciated.

Any one know where classes are held on ramstein? for the unvisertsy of maryland?

Has anybody compiled a list of the fastest and cheapest online/distance learning grad programs? I am interested in an MS in School Psychology with a PPS credential.

I can't think of any other job that pays between 60-85K while requiring you to only work 190 days per year. It comes out to about 12 weeks off per year. Also, the average workday is 8AM-3PM and you are never working when your kids are out of school! Can you say fun summer vacations? If any of you can think of a reason not to pursue this let me know.

Because of all the reasons listed above I am considering a MS in School Psychology, with a PPS credential, from National university. The program consists of about 20-25 courses taken 1 at a time (1 every 4 weeks). You attend 2 nights a week from 5:30-10PM. Once all of the courses are completed a one year (school year) paid internship is required. It is a paid internship paying about $150 a day. Once completed you are ready to be employeed as a school psychologist. Most complete the program in 2-2.5 years depending on whether or not you run the internship simultaneously.

The downside is that it costs about 1,350.00 per course meaning the program will cost 30K+. If anybody is aware of a cheaper, faster or online school psychology grad program that includes a PPS credential (required in Cali) let me know.

I posted an in depth story about my statistics experience (late July). I think that it got deleted before I had a chance to send it or something. Anyway, this is the first time that I have been back and apparently some people got freaked about their upcomming stats exams because I never returned with my results.

Well, it is old news now. I will make a long story short by saying that I scored a 58 using only IC. I did in fact earn a BS in Psychology with that exam, versus a BSL. That was quite a big deal for me if you all remember.

I also apologize for any unanswered messages. I just had to get away and decompresshilarious

HI. I'm trying to avoid having to pay 900 bucks for my precalculus course. but ..dont know if i can study and pass pre calculus.. I don't see annnnny info on clep buster or on instantcert!!! : ( where can I study?? .. boo hoo. wanted to skip pre cal...

Hello,

Does anyone know anything about this university?

Columbia Southern University - Online University for Distance Learning - Online Degree

I scored a 58 today, but it wasn't easy. Quite a few challenging questions, so I took my time with this one. I had 104 questions, and most had a lot of tricky wording. I used IC, PassYourClass, and notes from Snazzlefrag (thanks, again Snazz!).

Know:
trophic levels (food chain, food web, producers, consumers)
greenhouse effect (cause and effects)
waste management in US
ozone layer (many questions here)
climate & temperature (how changes occur)
atmosphere, stratosphere, troposphere (how each is affected)
