  Just Starting
Posted by: flyingby - 07-25-2007, 07:11 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (6)

Recently I decided I would give online schools and the CLEP exams a shot after being hired full time at Citigroup after interning as a senior in high school. I can't fit in school and don't want to give up the great opportunity to get a jump start on my career. I was able to complete one year at a B&M college and have 24 credits to show for it.

Ok so I've narrowed down the school to Regis because it has a B&M campus and has been on the newsweek top schools in the nation list for 12 years which is a major plus for me. I've also narrowed down the CLEP/DSST exams I want to take to the following

Principles of Financial Accounting
Principles of Marketing
Principles of Management
Introductory Business Law
Principles of Microeconomics
Principles of Statistics
Principles of Finance
Money and Banking
College Level Spanish Language
Personal Finance

Now my question is where should I start? Is there an order which would make it easier? Any tips for a newbie? Any reviews on Regis?....I'll take any advice in good light.

  New REA Macro and Micro on the way!!
Posted by: blueyzz28 - 07-25-2007, 06:49 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (1)

Fellow Testers,

REA is coming out with a new Macroeconomics and Microeconomics books. Macro comes out July 30th and Micro is in September, I believe. The original REA books, to me anyway, were not very good. However, the new books should be more in the format of REA's most recent ones which shoud make studying more focused and when used with InstaCert should make these two exams passable. I know some on this site have had trouble with these exams, but REA is starting to churn out more CLEP book materials and that is good for everyone! I love their study materials.

Too bad I have moved onto my upper-level DSST exams..LOL.

  Analyzing and Interpreting Literature, Pass!
Posted by: blueyzz28 - 07-25-2007, 05:18 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (5)

Well, I bought the REA book, studied for one day and took the Analyzing and Interpreting Literature today. Passed with a 66!! For everyone reading this, take caution. This exam is a monster. Lots of reading, obviously. It took me the full 90 minutes to complete the exam and I thought I had failed miserably, but was pleasantly suprised when I saw the 66 flash on the computer.

You can not study for this exam effectively. Just buy the REA book, learn the the definitions and take the practice tests; hopefully you will pass as well, and get 6 college credits.

  Why so little info on Chemistry CLEP?
Posted by: Drummerboy - 07-25-2007, 03:41 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

Hey everyone!

I looked over the forums and it appears that there is very little info concerning the Chemistry CLEP. Does anyone have any idea why not many people take it? Also, I know the question has been asked before, but "Has anyone taken the Chemistry CLEP?"Smile

  Finals Tomorrow
Posted by: Blonco - 07-25-2007, 02:57 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (8)

I will be taking my last 2 finals at my B&M school tomorrow. After my finals tomorrow, I will be 9 hours short of graduation which I will fullfill through DANTES and ECE. Its a good feeling, but almost scary as I have been going to school full-time, working 2 jobs, trying to be the best husband possible, and prepare for a newborn around Christmas. I am not sure what will occupy my time, but it has got to be better than school!

Thanks again for all the help around here. This has been a great site that has helped me get this far without spending countless numbers of wasteful hours sitting in a boring lecture.

  Electives for TESC?
Posted by: Farmerboy - 07-25-2007, 02:44 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi all,
For my degree in management from TESC I have as one of my electives Business Law II. I have struggled with Business Law I and was wondering if I could substitute Principles of Supervision instead. However, I have already taken Principles of Management, Org. Behavior, and HRM. Would this be a duplication of credit?

[SIZE="2"][COLOR="Navy"]For those students of Psychology it may interest you to know that Dr. Albert Ellis, the Grandfather of cognitive-behavioral therapies and the developer of the REBT system (Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy) passed away today. I did a major paper on Dr. Ellis and REBT & ABC theory when I completed my M.S. Psychology degree.
