Luckily the Brits followed in Americas footsteps with a similar piece of legislation as the patriot act, or we would of potentially lost more lives today then in Pearl Harbor or September 11. What do you guys think about the foiled plot?

We've added materials for the Excelsior College Exam named Psychology of Adulthood and Aging. This should count for upper-level credit at most colelges that award credit for ECEs

Since this is one fo the first Excelsior exams we've made materials specifically for, we're anxious to hear your feedback, so please keep us posted on your results!

Next Up should be Gerontology ECE

Good luck....

Passed CLEP Humanities today (61) after studying with IC (Great resource), REA (awesome guide) and Comex (somewhat helpful) guides for about two weeks.

My college accepts either the Eng. Comp with essay and the one without. Which one is easier and other than the obvious what are the other differences ? Should I take the DANTES one or the CLEP ? Please share your experiences with me.

My other question is if I pass an exam but do not have the pre-req will my college still accepts it anyway ?

Thanks all.

Has anyone used the Dantes MIS test to fulfill one of 6 "subject matter" classes required for a Bachelor's of MIS degree at Excelsior? Just trying to get my ducks in a row before officially enrolling, and to date no one with experience can answer this for me. Muchas gracias for any assistance anyone can provide.

I just wanted to start this thread back up because the last one got a little side tracked.

All of you MSCE's and CCNA's and Comptia+'s have it easy! I'm RHCE and I can't find a school that grants credit for that cert. (I would like it to be worth 10,000 Applied Professional credits, but will settle for 2)

College credit for certification is a wonderful thing. I just wish I didn't have to wait (until next month) to get my CCNA to use it!

I took this today and passed with an A. I got feedback from people who had taken it on degreeinfo.com, and found that really useful. I used an old edition of the recommended textbook, along with the study guide that goes with it - I actually used this study guide, because there was a list of multiple choice questions for every chapter, and it ended up being the equivalent of a practice test. I also used the research and statistics chapter of Kaplan's GRE Psychology prep guide. Be sure you understand the design and process of experiments, because it seemed to me that the majority of the test questions were focused on that aspect. The textbook (Experimental Psychology/Myers & Hansen) comes with a glossary of terms for each chapter, which was convenient, as so many of those terms are on the Content Outline for the test....it was like getting a jump start on things. I probably spent twenty hours studying, as it was a required course, plus I needed a good grade to keep up my gradepoint.

CLEP : The College Level Examination Program (Kaplan CLEP)
[ only have a partial IBSN # of 0743262581. Edition 2005 ]

Is this a great study guide to supplement with IC?

Does anyone know what subjects does this go over?

Is it even worth purchasing? A duplicate of Collegeboards??

The IC flashcards ARE wonderful!!!

I have a couple of quick questions/observations.

In the test 4 answer 12 of the Am. Govern.
Should it be non-stratifed, instead of nonstratified (no hyphen)?

Just curious because I like to learn EVERYTHING!!

Also in the Answer section of Question #30 (I actually read them)
I think a period was left off, the end on the sentence.

Just an helpful observation to 'fix' any errors (typos) on the pages.

I also try (but not always) to contact the web master of any web site to correct those typos.

Drives me crazy when a web page has a misspelled word such as:
recieved yikes!!! instead of received
or
the word won, when it should be the correct wording of one (meaning number).
Read that one in the paper once -- cracked me up. (Something to the fact of "There was only 'won' missing bicycle.) What has spell checker done for us lately.

Cool...got the big envelope with my DANTES Principles of Supervision exam score today. I took the exam around July 20th so it took about 18 days to get the results. Scored a 62 so I'm quite happy. I plan on taking Here's To Your Health in the next week or two. Man, it feels good to not have to sit through a semester in class and to still get the credit.

Thanks,
