    Default Okay let's do alittle Clep busting

    Iam wondering how many credits in theory I could actually imagine getting in one week if I really went after it either using clep or dsst. Here's the game .. this really must be doable and yes this is a game..alittle relief and past testing knowledge...so if I started on Monday.. and tried to set the clep record..I would take this plan of action:

    Monday morning...social science and history{easy test} 6 credits
    Monday afternoon...analyzing writing test{easy test} 6 credits

    now who wants to take it from there...it's our chance to put together a speed week of testing. You're up ..so Tuesday I TAKE????????

    Default I'll Take Friday

    Ok, I'm not in need of anymore lower level credits, but I'm game. I will sign up and take Humanities in the morning and Sociel Science & History in the afternoon.


    I don't need'em, but this should be fun.

    Now remember this is just pretend!! Iam trying to see just how many credits a person you was obsessed with getting lots of credits asap could "realistically" get in a week. I already took the history and social science Monday afternnon so..pick again!! Hey, hopefully this will be a little brain teaser and who knows it might actually work for someone. Don't forget to allow study time as we wanna pass these tests.

    I know this is off the subject, but it does feel great to walk out of a test center with a semester's worth of credits in one day! The most I ever did was 18 credits in a day: 12 on CLEP Spanish and 6 Natural Sciences. I was on top of the world! anar579

    i think ana should use this and go next! i can't imagine anyone topping this! and this is for real!

    last week i may have set the record with:

    Introductory Psychology for 3 credits
    Introductory Sociology for 3 credits

    English Composition with essay for 6 credits
    Analyzing & Interpreting Lit. for 6 credits

    Principles of Micro for 3 credits

    21 credits in about 5 days which is not to bad
    Cost me about 1k but i figure all the classes i would've skipped this fresh. year would've been a waste
    ********* ill take the next 3 months off and finish the next set in the spring

    university of dakota takes them, what a joke

    yeah easy **** man should have np
    supplement REA's books to get good idea of the subject if you can
    or if you're a cheap ass like myself just go to:

    US Air Force - Education and Library Resource Center
    for 3 good practice tests that should give you perspective on how you'll do.
    just click on clep tests, then click on Sociology exams
    (use code FL9000) to log on my man
    im in USAFANG so i get good access for free

    don't sweat good luck
