Hey Ho! I just finished taking Biology and passed. That means I've completed all of my requirements. Last week I took my Praxis for Art. Here in NJ I can obtain teaching certification through the Alternate Route. So that is my plan. Once I get all my paperwork in to the state and they give me my certificate of eligibility I can start the alternate route courses. Unfortunately, I can't do them online, but I won't have to student teach.

When I clicked to the score screen and got my passing score, I started shaking. I guess it was the pressure of what I considered a hard test, passing it and then knowing that had just finsihed all the requirements for my BA. Once I got out of the testing center I just started laughing and running. Actually I felt like whooping and doing a side kick but toned it down so I didn't startle anyone else or fall on my butt.

I started testing out in September 2006. Since then I accumulated 66 non-traditional credits. CLEP , DSST, PLA and TECEP. Up until September I had only accumulated 54 credits, going very part-time and I was just trying to get an associate's degree. I started my traditional education in spring of 2002with two semesters off.

So altogether the process has taken me a little more than four years. I am relieved to have this phase behind me. Now I can spend my time doing art instead of studying.

I had Lyme disease in 1999, but it took me years to get my health back. Even while I was attended school at first I would have really bad days. I keep plodding along, part-time, taking my art courses. Those I wouldn't have been able to take non-traditionally, so I feel that they were well worth my energy.
