    When I scheduled and I clicked every day that was the only one that had any listed. I checked every day for july and august. So oh well.

    And the second closest center is to far for me to drive for the exam. It would cost me in gass the same as I would be saving by taking a clep at my local CC

    Question

    here's the link of my previous post for pol sci test,

    http://www.instantcertonline.com/for...s-quizzes.html

    now for physics honestly its going to be a 6 credits test so expect a lot of problem solving (basically guessing wont help much here ) If you really want to pass this Uexcel test, I suggest you to get a used copy of the The Ultimate Physics Tutor - 11 Hour Course DVD by Jason Gibson thats the best material you can find out there when it comes to learning physics and problem solving, he has the same type of problem solving course for calculus as well (which I personally didnt try for calculus but heard good feedback) Standard deviant Calculus (dvd1 and 2) is not bad neither you can go for it, psychology= piece of cake, any type of Clep or AP study material along with Peterson's practice tests should do it

    good luck

    So you do recomend "The Ultimate Physics Tutor." Well it is not that expensive and has decent reviews on amazon.

    Amazon.com: The Ultimate Physics Tutor - 11 Hour Course! - 2 DVD Set! - Learn By Examples!: Jason Gibson: Movies & TV

    I might order it this coming pay day (monday) and try it.

    If they accept any thing from excelsior like credits for online courses or ECE tests credits (which they usually do) then they should accept Uexcel without any problem, however if you call them right now, they might not even know about Uexcel (excel what?? microsoft ?? ) so expect any type of non-sense answers(ever had those who just google it while on the phone with u and act like they know it since ever ?!) my suggestion for you : go take those tests (its free), once you passed (at least one subject ), have them send a transcript for UoP, at first, my guess is you might have to struggle with them a lil bit (depending on who evaluates your credits) but at the end, you ll be the winner as they wont be able to find a logical reason to refuse it

    good luck !!

    I would actually like to sit this exam, just to see how they're set up.

    I would "guess" that you could/should use all of the usual suspects for study (see my list below) including IC.
