Now for some good/bad news.
I got 47 on principles of marketing 
60 on Freshman Engish composition 
Prin of marketing was the first one I took and there was definitely nerves with this one. Also my pacing thru the test was a bit off. I took too much time re reading the first 20 questions and fell short on time in the end. In the end I had a lot of questions I had marked undone and basically guessed the ones that were not done in the last 5-7 minutes. I think that was a big mistake.
In the second test I was much more comfortable and able to pace myself in the whole exam.
But I am so happy I did it. This has really opened doors for me making me feel more comfortable with the idea of taking more tests. Thanks to all those who offered encouraging words.

Cindy,
Hey! Well, you didn't get the 3 credits, but you DID get the 6!!! AND, best of all, you know what to expect for your next exams. Don't let it get you down- schedule your next tests and start studying- keep your momentum going and you'll be rackin' up those credits like crazy.
(When you get nervous, think of all those essays and compositions you WON'T be writing over the next 16 weeks!!!!!!!!)
