Graduate school...

rcst0kes Wrote:ok, I have a couple of questions I couldn't find answers too.

I would like to obtain a psychology degree from one of the big three. Then I plan on going to graduate school. Most of my credits will be by examination. Will this have a large affect on getting accepted to graduate schools?

Also, for those of you that have degree's from one of the big three. When applying for a job, do employers generally look down at this type of degree?

I'd really appreciate any advice! Thanks in advance!

In general, pursuing a PSI degree from any of the big 3, or the BIG 1 EC,[COLOR="navy"] is a great idea. How far it will be accepted after that is up to that institution.

That being said, I would also ask as to how far in school you are planning to go and to what end in a career path?

To answer you acceptance question a bit more directly, my feeling is that you shouldn't have any issues except for establishing a hearty GPA inasmuch as many exams (CLEP in particular) no longer warrant a letter grade by by schools and you end up with a dreaded "P" on your transcript instead of an "A" that would boost you overall GPA.

Good Luck![/COLOR]
