Ultimate Pay It Forward!!! - MomOf2 - 03-18-2009
I am sure it has been said before but this forum is truly a Pay It Forward scenerio. Almost every thread is someone helping someone else, not to mention all the encouragement. This is a blessing and I just have to say I appreciate all the advise and suggestions and hope that someday I too will be able to pay it forward to a newby or even an oldie.
Since joining just over a month ago, I have earned 24 credits as of today and I honestly believe that if I had not joined this forum I would not have been able to do it.
Just a little test history:
I started with Clep Sociology and Clep Computer Info systems, then Clep Intro to Management. I took these first because of all the threads talking about being some of the easiest tests. I needed to get me feet wet to see if I was going to be able to handle it.
Then I moved on to ALEKS. I made it through Beginner & Intermediate & College Algebra, as well as Statistics.
Then to Straighterline for Macro and MicroEconomics. I just finished Macro tonight and will start on Micro in a couple of days. I need to give my brain a break.
I want to give a special thanks to all who have already obtained their degree and are still here encouraging everyone else to go for it.
Now that I have said my thanks, it is off to bed.

Hi Mom,
I am and was in your shoes not to long ago. I started working on my education while I was in Iraq when I found this site a little over a year ago. Although I am not as fast at taking many tests as some people here, I am slowly but surely getting to the end of the tunnel.
I agree that I could not have done it without the help and advice of many members here on this forum. In the little time I've been here, I finally received my AAS this month and am now 9 SH from my BSL.
So keep on studying and knocking out those tests. You will get there eventually as well.

Good job. Good use of mixed resources to maximize time and money. I can tell you'll make it- you have a great understanding on how to extract full value from this process for maximum return. Onward!

Great job so far! Keep up the good work!
Without IC I would have given up long ago. I love this place, and am grateful for it.
