    Default Need advice

    Here's the story I need to take 5 cleps by the end of August. I need 6 social sciences credits so I was thinking of taking the two psych exams. Other than that what are the absolute easiest exams I could possibly take since I only need elective credits and then I am DONE!

    I hate to sound lazy but I would like to do the least amount of work possible since I have a major case of senoritis right now. I've busted my butt this year starting with 36 credits last August. That means a total of 84 credits in one year! Needless to say I'm j usta little burnt out with school and work. I tell you I'm taking one serious vacation when I graduate.

    I've already taken Analyzing Lit, Principles of Mgmt and DSST Race to Save the Planet. I heard Intro to Computers is pretty easy.You guys have always given the best advice so I appreciate your feedback.

    What about Social Sciences and History? It's six credits and very manageable.

    What about College Math? That's 6 credits and not hard to study for if you are a math person. If you've taken Algebra you should be able to pass this with just a brush-up. I also found that US History 1 and 2 aren't too bad.

    Math... not so much. US history much better. Iwannapass how did you find the psych exams. P.S. Principles of Mgmt was almost as easy as A&I. I highly recommend.

    Humanities is easy if you have a broad knowledge of music/art/literature....stuff like that. I hardly studied for that and got a 68. Definately do the Social Science and History. I studied for that one, though. uuuhhh... take a look at the DANTES list. Those are good tests.

    I agree! This one was fairly simple for me.
