...and i'm back to taking clep/dsst exams... - Blue - 03-09-2007

hello! i thought i was done taking clep exams for extra credits towards my degree but unfortunately my advisor misinformed me and now i'm stuck in a predicament =( so i'm back having to take a couple more exams...

i actually have a question about the "intro to world religions" DSST exam. i've read in other topics that it's moderately hard. for those who have taken it and thought it wasn't easy, what made it "difficult"? was it the amt of content covered or was the content itself complicated? i might need to take this exam after i get some sort of an approval from my school.

and for intro to computing, is the dsst exam easier than the clep exam? i remotely remember that snippet of info from the last time i was studying for clep exams.

also, for the business majors out there, is there any type of clep or dsst exam that fulfills a business communications requirement?

ugh, it's so annoying when advisors get things wrong and screw up the students...kinda ironic really. but yeah, thanks in advance!

Hi Jenny,

I'm sorry to hear you need to take some more.
I wanted to comment on the World Religions exam. I wrote it did not find it easy, but not super difficult either. The difficulty for me was to keep the different religions apart, not to confuse when who made a difference how.
I did not have a lot of knowledge in Religions, used IC and passed.

Go(o)d luck,
