I still find myself reading the questions and thinking I've never heard of this before.

Do you think reviewing all the Peterson's practice test questions is helpful in addition to continually doing the IC cards? I try and do that, because I know some of practice questions show up sometimes.

Thanks,

I was a little worried for you that they were going to extend the "down time", so I'm glad they didn't! I've been using them this weekend to practice for Mgmt and A&I Lit - I sure wish they had these for the DSST tests.

Anyway, good luck with your studying today and I'll pray that your tests go well on Tuesday!

Take care,
JoAnne

Can you or anyone steer me in the right direct for additional study guides besides IC (which of course are the best) but I will be clepping out on courses that I have no knowledge in what so ever. LOL I am getting a little frazzled on what I should study (period). Think my brain is fried and I have not even begun to study....since I do not what which study guide that are the best for me.

I am planning on clepping these four first.
Macroeconomics Psychology Sociology American Government

Then later on to History I & II Western Civil I & II yada yada yada its a mix from here......whatever I can study for. LOL

First thing.....SLOW DOWN!

Just take a few deep breaths. I know you are excited about this new world of CLEP you have just found, and you have a gazillion questions. But you are coming across as being a little bit hyper!

I don't think you need any more coffee!
hilarious

My head is spinning from all the numerous questions and multiple posts you have initiated so far.

You really don't need to know everything about every exam and every available study resource all right now at this very moment and all in one go!

Here's my best suggestion for you at this stage.... Spend the next day or so just leisurely reading through the EXISTING threads. You will learn so much, and a lot of your questions will probably have already been answered in older posts.

Then, when you have a good solid foundation of knowledge, you can begin asking any questions that you may still have.

Does that sound like a fair plan?

The onus is on you to learn what you can by reading through the old posts, and THEN to come back to us with your still unanswered questions.

We'll all still be here ready and willing to answer your questions in a few days. So there is no rush for you to have all your questions answered right away.

Do a bit of reading first, and SOAK in the information. Then you will be in a better place to know exactly which questions to ask.

Shhh! Be still! It's alright!

It's great to have somebody with your level of passion and excitement on the board, but we have all the time in the world to discuss your needs and goals, and to answer your questions.

Alright?

Now.....Welcome to the board!
hilarious

We're here for ya,

Criticalthinker Wrote:Thank you. Yes I am so glad and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support. I will b so glad to be finished with this week's exams.

I am going to also try the DSST exams on Getcollegecredit.com sometime today possibly. I am scheduled to take Fundamentals of Counseling and Here's to your Health next Friday.

Part of me is debating and wondering though whether I should skip the DSST exams, wait two weeks, and try two more CLEPS. I am trying so hard to finish this degree by Oct 1st at the latest. (that includes finsihing my IU courses/exams). I don't need UL credit.

thoughts welcome.

I don't know if I can handle the DSST wait. If I knew I had passed everything, I could really buckle down and finish the IU courses.
