  Passed the Humanties Clep thanks!
Posted by: AKay - 06-30-2006, 08:55 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (6)

Hi all im a noob to posting although i have been lurking for a few weeks!
I was able to pass my Humanities Clep with a 53! Hey a Pass is a Pass and 6 credits toward my lower level credits Smile
I was really impressed with the flash cards here and how they helped me pass as I was only able to go through the questions once quickly the night before and did well enough to pass!

I have a question im deficient in 3 credits social science and 3 credits physical science lower leve. What would be your advice to take clep wise? I really do not want to pay or take those classes after im done with my upper level classes at UoP.
Any advice on any tests I can take for upper level at University of Phoenix?
I asked them about the MIS and they said it would duplicate a class i already passed Sad
Im trying to get done by May 2007!

  American Lit
Posted by: ajahadi - 06-30-2006, 08:23 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (9)

Hey, for those of you that have taken this test and passed any words of wisdom? What did you study? Was it hard if you haven't read all of the books since the 1800's?

I bought the Idiots guide to American Literature but I am wondering if I need to read a whole bunch of cliffs notes or something.

Thanks for your help!

  Favorite Authors
Posted by: Librevore - 06-30-2006, 12:29 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (19)

______________________________________________________________
Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, the Brontes, Thomas Hardy and Anthony Trollope. Sunday nights find me watching PBS. I also love Rosamund Pilcher. Favorite modern author has to be Francine Rivers.

Who do you like? (Beckysharp)

______________________________________________________________

Thought it might be good to bring this over to a new thread so the other off topic thread doesn't become too off topic.Big Grin

Favorite English authors would have to include: Sir Francis Bacon, Sir Issac Newton, Daniel Defoe, John Wyclife, Shakespeare and Agatha Christie. I have eclectic taste. Favorite modern author-girl, we are on the same page here! Francine Rivers, hands down. "Redeeming Love" was awesome. I wouldn't read it for the longest time because the title sounded too "girly." Glad that a friend kept insisting. She has some other truly good ones also.(Edit-forgot to include Dickens!)

Okay, non-English author favorites? And does anyone else have some favorites they would like to share?

  Which CLEP? Freshman College Comp or English Comp w/ Essay
Posted by: crna2b - 06-29-2006, 05:17 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (10)

Just found out from my school that they will accept the CLEP Freshman College Comp or English Comp w/ Essay in order to satisfy the Comp I & II requirements (6 credits).

I don't know enough about the differences in these two exams to make a smart decision at this point. Any comments on either would be greatly appreciated!

  Excelsior Psychology Major
Posted by: snazzlefrag - 06-29-2006, 12:20 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (12)

Hi All,

I just downloaded the current version of the Guidelines for the Major in Psychology from Excelsior (I had an older version).

In the new pdf file, there is an announcement that they "anticipate that requirements for the major in Psychology will change" as of January 1, 2007.

So if any of you are planning on doing a Psychology degree based on the existing requirements, you might want to make sure you enroll before the end of this year.

I couldn't find any details about the actual changes they expect to make. But I feel confident in guessing that the changes will make the requirements more stringent than they are currently.

Has anybody else heard any further details? Can anybody who is already enrolled find out from their advisor for us?

Thanks,
Snazzlefrag

  American Govt - ready?
Posted by: mom2LLL - 06-28-2006, 09:39 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (20)

OK, so I have been studying for this test and have gotten a lot of useful information from past posts, but I am very concerned that I am not ready.

I have taken two Peterson practice tests and scored 44 and 48 - this is what scares me. While I am taking these tests I always feel confident that I know the information and am always a little shocked by the score. I have never scored below 50 in any practice test before (except math). There also seems to be a lot of graphs in the practice test. Are there a lot on the actual test?

Well, I am suppose to take the test tomorrow at 3 PM and I am feeling very nervous. Studying is a challenge because I have 3 kids home from school. :eek:

Anyhow, I will just keep plugging away. Any advice is always welcome.

Thanks, Kim

  DANTES Business Law II
Posted by: snazzlefrag - 06-27-2006, 09:11 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (11)

Hi Everyone,

I am very tentatively considering tackling Business Law II at some point. Sadly, Instantcert doesn't yet cover this exam.

So for my own benefit as well as others, I wonder if we could put our heads together and fill this thread with feedback, advice, tips, tricks, and opinions on the Business Law II exam.

I haven't been able to find many online study resources for this particular exam either. So if anybody knows of any useful sites, or has notes, pdf's etc. to share, please speak up.


Here are the online resources I have found so far:

Thanks in advance for your input,

  Classes needed
Posted by: LYNCHD - 06-26-2006, 08:46 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (22)

Hi. I'm new to this web site. I 'm required to finish a social science, math, humanities and written/public speaking ASAP for a job requirement. I just took the sociology clep and think I did ok. Is instant cert enough to get me all these classes clepped? Any info would be much appreciated. I dont have that much time so I need to pass them all the first time. I'm debating which one to take next. I'm thinking one for the humanities credit. Which is the easiest?? I was looking at the ethics in america or world religions.

Thanks!
