    Default Intro. Psych.

    Only have a moment but wanted to post todays test result. Passed Intro. Psych. early this morning with a 69. Yeah!

    Thanks everyone. I haven't been able to read the posts or visit this board very much at all the last couple of weeks. Just here and there. 2 more long days and life will get back to "normal." I am looking forward to catching up on how all of you are doing!

    Default Passed ECE Organizational Behavior

    Got a B on this one today. Kind of a vague exam. My recommendations: Get a good "gut" overall feel for the points on the content guide, use process of elimination to narrow down the answer choices, and go with you intuition on the ones you dont know (pretty standard procedure). IC is good, but I would recommend more. I used IC, the practice test on the companion websites for the recommended texts, and a used iStudysmart study guide and textbook. I'm happy with the B. I never really enjoyed psychological topics anyway, I find myself wondering if the people who come up with this stuff have ever worked in a factory environment- I doubt it! Anyway, another 3 upper level credits- 105 done total- 15 to go. On to ECE Ethics! Any suggestions anyone?

    20 more FEMA tests, four more CLEPs, and three Dantes and she'll have her degree from TESC. I wish I had known about this when I was 18. :-P


    Wow, good for her!!!
    None of the FEMA courses qualify for UL credit, right?
    Are any of the ECE UL exams easier than others?

    Well, since her degree is in liberal arts, liberal studies, the credits only fit in the "Free electives" category. So even if they ARE upper level, they don't apply to her major and consequently are counted as if they are lower level (just like my upper level business credits). But anyway, I doubt they're considered upper level in any degree program.

    If you search the boards, you can probably come up with an answer to your ECE UL question. Or pose the question as a new topic if it hasn't been addressed.

    Default Passed Microeconomics with a 70 Yesterday

    A word of advice about Macro and Micro. Micro is significantly more difficult. I would recommned taking Macro first to understand the basic concepts.

    For Micro, concentrate on understanding the graphs for all types of industries and how they work. There are lots of questions related to these. Know how prices are set and how to measure consumer satisfaction.

    I'm glad these 2 are behind me!

    Congrats on Org Behavior! ECE Ethics was pretty easy... It's mostly scenariors (like those at the bottom of IC's ethics) and a ton of 'answer elimination' goes a long way. Lots of common sense stuff. Go over the IC material and you'll do fine. I thought it was the easiest test I've taken thus far.
