Mixture of CLEP/Traditional Classes - averagejoe - 03-19-2007

MuellerArts Wrote:I got my Associate's degree traditionally, and then worked (plodded away) on my Bachelors while in the military through off-duty education.

Unfortunately, by the time I found out about that there actually were classes that I could CLEP, there was little left to test out on. I was fortunate to have an advisor who was very big on having students test out.

During my time testing, I was taking 1 or 2 off-duty courses (depending on the schedule) and 1 test. With the exception of the test I just took (Environment and Humanity), I went in without any study as the topics were things I had experience with -- Computing, Drug and Alcohol Abuse, Human Relations, and Here's to your Health.

With the transfer credits (mostly elective) for military experience, I'll end with 138 credits when I graduate -- either when the results from Environment and Humanity come back as PASS Smile or after I actually take the Human Ecology course (8/21-10/15)

So you took "Drug and Alcohol Abuse, Human Relations, and Here's to your Health" with out studying at all? Are the tests that 'common sense' oriented..?
