I received an e-mail yesterday from Charter Oak State College that my Academic Autobiography has been approved. This completes all requirements for my bachelor's of science degree;I will graduate in May.

Instantcert was a tremendous help in completing my degree plan. Listed below are the Clep and Dantes tests I completed with their corresponding score and credits earned. Also listed is study materials used for each exam.

1. Humanities 62- 6 credit Instantcert and REA Study Guide 11/05
2. Social Science and History 64- 6 credit Instantcert and REA 12/05
3. English Comp w/Essay 51- 6 credit English Grammer for Dummies,REA 02/06

5.Analyzing and Interpeting Lit. 61- 6credit REA Subject Book 04/06
6. American Goverment 60- 3 credit CliffNotes 05/06

19. College Math 56- 6 credit REA,multitude of other books,time 11/06

Also completed the 1 credit Computer Literacy course now required.

All told 79 credits in just under a year (barely). Certainly not a rarity on this board. There are many who have completed far more test in a shorter period of time than I. So if you are hesitating,and procrastinating out of fear, don't.

In case you're wondering I had accumulated 41.7 credits prior to matriculating with Charter Oak. Of these 36 were upper level in my concentration,so I only needed to earn lower level credit to complete my degree.
