    I was in the area of my testing center this morning, so I decided to pop in for an exam. Decided on a whim to take Business Law. I hadn't studied whatsoever, but I've been feeling pretty confident with my test taking ability, so I gave it a shot cold. Passed with a 55. Not an impressive score, but as they say about CLEP exams...a pass is a pass.

    Jeeezzzz!! You're lying, right? Just tell me you are so I feel better!! As I sit here with 4 Math books, 100 index cards, scrap paper spread all around me, and 6 broken pencils,pulling my hair out trying to get somewhere with Math and you breeze in, take an exam, and pass. Aarrgghhh!! I bet you were the one in school that always messed up the curve for the rest of us, weren't you?

    Oh well, I digress. Congratulations, awesome job. Back to my scrap paper.

    And, yeah that is impressive.

    Far from it. I barely made it out of high school, though it was for lack of interest, not lack of ability.

    You'll kill the math exam for sure! Good luck.

    That is hilarious! I know that this forum is addictive and I have read that taking and passing tests is also. Now I can see how bad it really gets. Congratulations on your success!

    After much thought/deliberation, I've shifted my goal somewhat. Instead of pursuing a BS-Business (MHR concentration) with Excelsior's business school, I've decided to continue with the liberal arts school and go for a BS-L with areas of focus in administrative/management studies and music.

    Default quesiton on Dantes

    Can someone direct me to where to find the passing scores on exams? I just took Ethics in America.

    I've taken two so far and the information on the exam seems to be more on the concepts and views of authors. This has not been included in the instancert study material I access online. Anyone experience the same?

    Took Intro to Business and Technical Writing today. Scored 65 and 59 respectively. 6 CH closer to a BS!

    Not bragging that's motivational.

    Keep up the good work.
