    hi shorle!

    I totally understand what you are saying, these boards motivate me!!!


    These boards alone and the advice each individual gives is worth more value to me than anything right now! It really gives me the motivation to take another CLEP/DSST/ECE because I know they are possible to do!

    Welcome to the boards, happy studying, and good luck!

    Hi Shorle,

    Welcome! You say that you are going to sit two exams in the next week or so. That's exciting. Which two are you planning on starting with?

    Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone

    ShotoJuku,

    The two exams I'm planning for are:

    ECE English Comp.
    CLEP Humanities


    My reasoning for beginning with these two are that English has always been a subject I've felt extremely confident in, and have never required study, so it's more or less my "control group" test -- the one that I should definately pass... Humanities, on the other hand, is one that is requiring much more study for me, so I'm hoping that it will offer insight in relation to just how much I need to study for on these.

    So on that note, does anyone have advice concerning the CLEP Humanities?
