hi,
thank God i found instantcert and this forum! i have been freaking out about finishing my degree before december. i have been trying to buy the standard monthly membership for instantcert today, but my credit cards (i have tried two cards already) keep getting declined??? frustrating!! :mad: i know this is a mistake because i have the money. i emailed the webmaster on this and hopefully it will be resolved soon. the sooner i can get the study material, the sooner i can begin studying and passing the exams!@!! enough of my rant!
so i plan to take three tests this month - organizational behavior, world populations, and ethics theory and practice. i'm so nervous, do you think i'm being overzealous/unrealistic? :eek:
kuddos to all who completed their exams!! if you have anything helpful to share to better prepare me for these tests, please do so!!!

Prepare, prepare, prepare. Start with exams that cover materials with which you're already familiar. This will build your confidence and help you sort out what study methods work best for you.

Since May 29, I've taken five Dantes, including two last Friday. I'm taking two more this morning, and plan two more next Monday. If you think you can do it, do it!

Great thread! wow.. very impressive! I can go fast, but not sure about 10 in 4 days. Maybe if you were really good at pairing tests. Something like the three computing tests followed by these business tests: Principles of Mgmt, Supervision. HR Management, Org Behavior, Intro to Business, and Bus Ethics?
Still probably more info than could fit into my head in such a short time frame!

That's freaking outstanding. So what's your excuse for not having a degree yet? You're making me feel slow, I take a test or two every other month. At least you are taking them. I have not gotten a new credit in almost 8 months. I might have to pull a Joel to ever finish this degree. If I was following your pace, I'd have been done a loooooooooong time ago.

How do you do this without studying? Wow! That's equivelant as me being asked what's behind door number 153 and guessing what's behind it. You must be good at taking test. I guess if you can kind of go through the process of elimination on the multiple choice, and pick the best answer, its good enough for government work. Wish I could do that. Did your parents keep you in the closet with a bunch of college books when you were little or sumthin?
