New Course Provider - CIS Tesing - harrypotter - 04-09-2020
It’s unfortunate that they’re on the expensive side but it is the same price as most UExcel exams at $53 a credit.

But UExcel exams have the benefit of being from a regionally accredited college on a transcript with a grade which increases transferability over NCCRS.

I bought a study guide for an upper-level course, Physiological Psychology. A link to a textbook is provided to purchase but can probably be borrowed or downloaded for free. The exam consists of 50 multiple choice questions & 5 written answer questions. There are (2) 1000 word assignments required to be submitted separately from the exam. The exam is 70% of your grade & assignments are 15% - it doesn't state where the other 15% comes from.

Stephen from Coopersmith, who posts here occasionally, told me the other day they have "nothing to do them." That was pretty surprising, given all the similarities.

They may NOW not have anything to do with them, but I'll bet they did previously. Sounds like a big breakup happened, and they shared some of their courses with each other, because there are tons of similarities, including course numbers.
At $50/cr, the price isn't terrible (same as Coopersmith), but most can be found elsewhere.
