I think because for the USPTO, the course must be graded, which leaves TESU, Community College, or CLEP. (I think???) I'd rather take a class over re-taking the Chem Clep. I don't have time for anxiety anymore. The primary issue w/ CC is that the classes are few, and they are filled up more than a month in advance. 3 classes of the same course for 500,000+ people in a metro doesn't really cut it. So go through that 3 times and hope you can get all 3 courses filled in one year. It's a lot of time.

CLEPs aren't graded. I don't remember a grade requirement, but I'll have to refresh myself on the requirements. I think there was something about non-collegiate credits, including CLEP, only counting if a school accepts those credits as equivalent to a course.

I went back and looked, and it said courses taken on a pass/fail basis will not be accepted. I don't know if that applies to the other category of credits awarded for life experience. Life experience credits are almost never graded.
