Hi everyone,

I have to give a History clep for an elective and would like some advise on which one to give. If someone can please let me which of the following is easiest, given the fact I do not know much about history: U.S History I, U.S History II, Western Civilization I, Western Civilization II.
Also apart from instantcert what other sources did you use?

I also plan to give Business LAw clep. What sources did u use?

thanks

Steve,

An idea that I think would be very helpful would be to have a selection window where you can choose which questions you wish to be asked (specifically). Such that you could have the question stem shown (like in the window when you view missed questions), and have a checkbox next to each question in a section. Thus, you check the questions you want to review, hit next, and can review only those questions. The reason this matters is that when I'm studying, often it will take a while for each question to load. So if there are very rudimentary questions that I already know that I have to wait to load (particularly if they have images), it slows me down. I'd much rather focus on the unknown material than the stuff that I've known since I was 12.

I think it'd be great if you listed every subsection in an entire subject on one page with the checkboxes. I.e., you click on biology, you can go ahead and go through the sections like normal, but there's a link at the bottom that says "select individual questions." They'd be ordered exactly as they are now, except that it would show all 800 plus questions, you could select the ones you want, then click next. It'd also be great because often there are five or ten questions from a subsection that I haven't mastered, but it's a pain to wade through the other 70 questions to get just those. I'd rather get the five from the first subsection, the five from the second, and the five from the last and focus on those rather than all 800 questions at once.

I'm not a programmer, but having worked in customer support for a computer company for over a year with databases and all, it sounds feasible to me.

I have several prospective students that wish to join Instantcert....what is the best way to refer them?

Thanks to this website I am discovering a whole new set of options when it comes to my degree path. You are all awesome!!! Thanks for your help!

I called my school today and they told me what to do to register for my first CLEP. Tomorrow I am going there to turn in the application and schedule my test date for this wednesday. I'll be taking the Info. Sys/Comp. Applications CLEP. I have been through the flashcards a few times and just downloaded the "official" CLEP study guide. I got 42 out of the 55 practice questions correct and with another few hours of studying I know I will do fine. You all agree?

One question--Does anyone know if the comprehensive Official CLEP Study Guide offers the same practice questions as the individual course study guides? It is $25 and it says it contains sample questions for all 35 tests but I wonder if it offers fewer of these sample questions...

I took the Rise and Fall of the Soviet Union today.

Questions on the test not here in early days:

Who founded the Russian Social Dem?

Why did the Bol and Mev split? The choices on the test made this one hard.

Something about Alex III and some religious figure’s influence on policy.

Does anyone here know what your raw score has to be in order to obtain a scaled score of 50, I hear that it can vary with each test? If you think you know you answered 30-40 questions is that a good sign you passed?
Thanks

I have the fun and pleasure { ha ..ha } of taking my first upper level test tomorrow. It's that current day topic of drug and alcohol abuse and I am hoping and praying for a good outcome. Also, thanks Snazzlefrag for forwarding along your helpful info. Does anyone else want to offer any last words of encouragement and help? Feel free to do so.

Hi,

I hope I can explain this adequately...

In the old version of Instantcert, clicking the BACK button simply took you back to the previous page. However, in the new version it takes you back all the way to the question BEFORE the one you are currently answering.

This is a problem because usually, if I misspell an answer, or if I want to update my answer, I merely want to go to the page immediately before the one I am on, and NOT the question before the one I am currently answering (Eg, 2 or even 3 pages back).

In addition, hitting the BACK button in my browser just brings up a "Page Has Expired" error. As a result, it is not even possible to go back to the last page that way

So basically, every single time I want to go back just one page, I have to go all the way back to the previous question and work my way back to where I want to be.

Is there any way to make the BACK button function as it used to under the old system (just go back to whatever the last page was)? Or are we stuck with this new BACK method that actually jumps further back than needed?

I would appreciate it if you could look into this issue.

Thanks,
Snazzlefrag

My Humanities knowledge is steadily increasing, scores going from 10%-20% to 30%-70% with Architecture 100% if I could spell. My biggest concerns are Visuals and Music. Is it safe to say when I'm scoring in the 70s or 80s for all sections I'm ready or should my scores be higher?

Just a quick few questions...

1. Has anyone taken the ECE test "American Dream"? I know it's not offered here on this site, but I was thinking about taking a shot at it.

2. How is ECE Orginizational Behavior test?

3. Should I take the ECE Ethics test or ECE World Population?


These would be the last few classes I need to get my BS.

Thanks for any and all types of Insight...
