  College Algebra: Reciprocals
Posted by: mstcrow5429 - 07-24-2007, 06:17 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - No Replies

Are reciprocals, aka multiplicative inverses, going to be on the exam?

Edit: I've figured out how they work now, but still want to know if they'll be on the exam.

  Ethics in America essay
Posted by: studyhard - 07-24-2007, 04:19 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

I have been told that TESC does not require the essay from this exam. Is that correct?

Also, if someone can tell me some specific logistics, that'd be helpful---I hear "essay" and "essay questions" and stuff used interchangeably and I'm really sorta perplexed as to what is actually on the test. Smile Is it just all multiple choice and yes/no, with an optional essay? Help, I'm getting nervous not knowing what to expect!!!!!

  CLEP Management and DSST Supervision
Posted by: studyhard - 07-24-2007, 04:06 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (7)

I've gone through and looked at a bunch of the old threads but I want to get a clear consensus from y'all.

If I use the Comex guide and IC for CLEP Prin. of Management, and then do JUST IC and the DSST practice exam/review for DSST Prin. of Supervision, should that earn me a comfortable pass on Prin. of Supervision?

Thanks!

  Excelsior College vs average state college

[SIZE="4"]I had only come to know the name "Excelsior College" through this forum. Would you say a diploma from Excelsior College holds as much esteem as your average state college/university? Thank youSmile [/SIZE]

I picked this up from another forum and wanted to pass it on to anyone who may be interested........It seems that EC/TESC/COSC will be accepting ACE Reviewed credit from McDonalds Hamburger U.

According to the article, "Those students will be able to earn up to 46 credits from HU which can be applied toward a bachelor or associate degree at Excelsior."[/COLOR][/SIZE]

  Human Resource Courses, HELP!!
Posted by: blueyzz28 - 07-24-2007, 07:24 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (3)

Ok, to receive a business degree with a concentration in HR, I need to take two or three electives. However, the only colleges that I have in my area that offer courses such as Compensation and Benefits, Staffing, Training Development, etc., is Strayer. To be honest, I do not want to pay Strayer $1500, not including books, for each course. Does anyone know of any online colleges that offer HR courses at reasonable prices? Excelsior has two courses they offer in Managing Diversity and Leadership, but again, Excelsior charges close to $1000.

I used Excelsiors course search, but seem to hit a dead-end. I already have the plan for taking HRM, Organizational Behavior and Labor Relations, but I just can not find any other courses. Someone out there must have received or is studying HR and would be able to help me.

P.S. I am taking Analyzing and Interpreting Literarture tomorrow. I do not need the credits, but will use this exam to improve my GPA, if I pass..LOL.

  homeschooled high school students
Posted by: cookderosa - 07-23-2007, 11:42 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (3)

There is a thread in the general forum about age of entrance to the "big 3" but I wanted to post this here since we have a poll about homeschool.
I know some of you are homeschooled high schoolers. I am a homeschool mom to 4 kids.
If you are taking CLEPs, DANTES, or APs (and passing) be sure your parent lists your high school courses as "College Prep" or in the case of AP tests as "Advanced Placement." Every CLEP/DANTES/AP exam should identify a course you completed. Don't miss any!! You will need to have a transcript, and this is a HUGE HUGE HUGE feather in your cap! Don't leave it out.
Here is an EXAMPLE using Psychology as an elective. (your transcript may vary based on your state law or your parent's opinion....one in the same:p )

Transcript:
Basic Psychology .5 credit *multiply by 1 for GPA

(if you passed the CLEP Psychology exam)
College Prep Psychology .5 credit *multiply by 1 for GPA

(if you passed the CLEP psych and edu psych)
Introduction to Psychology 1 credit *multiply by 1 for GPA

(if you passed AP psych with a 3 or higher)
AP Psychology .5 credit *and multiply by 1.5 for GPA

(if you passed AP psych with a 3 or higher and both psych CLEPs)
AP Psychology 1 credit *and multiply by 1.5 for GPA

  Business Law 2 (?)
Posted by: mjno - 07-23-2007, 07:45 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hello everyone,

I plan on taking DSST Business Law 2 soon and am trying to find additional info on this exam. I have seen a couple of threads on this test and Barron's Business Law is recommended, but based on the dsst fact sheet I can only find half of the info I would need. Is there anything else I can use for this test (have already done clep bus law test).

Cannot find much on this test, please help!

P.S.
Would the DSST practice tests help or like many of the other ones would it be a waste of time.

Thanks,
Mike

  Principles of Marketing/Prin. of Management Similarities?
Posted by: mudrigg - 07-23-2007, 07:22 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (6)

I took the principles of marketing clep and was able to get a 72. I was curious if anyone has also taken the prin. of management clep and if so, were there any similarities on the test? Or did you happen to find one harder than the other? I used REA book/CD on the marketing as well as the IC study area. I am going to be doing the same for POM. But I noticed that the REA book for management is about 2x as thick as the marketing one. Anyone with experience on both tests out there? Your opinion would be very valuable.

Thanks,

Mudrigg.
