    Default Congratulations Holly

    Holly most schools seem to give you a pass/fail grade on the clep so take the 57 which is a great score (any test you pass is a great score in my opinion) and go on to the next test. I will warn you the tests seems to be addictive though and once you take one you keep taking them.

    Just passed Principles of Management with a 76....yay! My dad teaches management classes and I've proof-read his charts many times, so I felt obligated to get a decent score, heh heh.

    Next up: Principles of Supervision.

    I'm going to post a little feedback on the Management CLEP in the Feedback Forum.

    Took two CLEP's tonight:

    College Mathematics - Squeaked by with a 53.. Considering I'm a huge math-aphobe, I was thrilled to pass at all. Sets.. Logic.. Graphs.. These are the things of which nightmares are made. I think I'm going to dodge the CLEP Algebra with the Penn Foster "Practical Algebra" course.

    Intro to Sociology - 67. Relatively easy, and IC covered about 80% of the questions, the rest I had picked up from a textbook or I had never come across at all.

    9 Credits down, so it's been a good day. I'm taking two more this Saturday, so it promises to be *knock on wood* a 15 credit week.

    Default Just passed my first upper level DSST

    Just passed my first upper level DSST

    I just passed Money and Banking with a 58 (needed a 48 to pass). Not the greatest score but I will take it.

    I would agree w/ everyone else who said take micro and micro first. Also make sure you know about Regulation Q. It was not on the flashcards but it was on the test.
