Banking exam credit?
#7
You can't go wrong. Pick a school first or pick an exam first, either way, you're headed in the right direction.

I actually picked an exam based on finding a free discarded textbook from my bookstore called Human Growth and Development. I just read it and then took the exam. At that time, I wasn't sure I was even smart enough to test out of a class, let alone worry about a WHOLE DEGREE. But that first pass gave me a big confidence boost, and I did take a few more just to "be sure" I could test my way through. Around that time I found this forum, and was very inspired by other's success too, so I joined InstantCert and the rest is my history.

If you budget $100 and 1 month to study, you'll have a better sense of whether this is a good plan for you.

EDIT: Your thread title "banking exam credit" wasn't answered yet. As you take CLEP exams, The College Board (exam author) records your score on an official transcript. Those records are kept for 20 years, so you have plenty of time to use your credit, no need to pay a banking service. If you know where you're going to attend, you can request that a free copy of your score report be mailed (that is a question you'll answer when you sit down to take the exam) but it's just as easy to wait. I waited until I'd taken all my exams and then paid $20 to have my official transcript mailed to TESU. It had all my passing scores on it. Easy either way.
