Ok I thought I was prepared to take this test, I read most of the stuff I could possibly read on the internet and even bought tons of study materials but I scored just 49 in my Intro Sociology today. So far I have a 3.5 GPA in school and I am worried if there will be a big fat FAILED marked on my college transcript. :-(( I wasted money and time only to fail.

Guys, do they mark fail in the transcript?

Hey it's okay, I studied very hard for this test along time ago and even took out several books from the library, granted I didn't know about this site at the time but I failed with a 47. I ended up just taking the stinking class lol. Everyone fails some and passes some. No worries.

P.S I failed Here's to your Health, which many people consider one of the easiest tests out there.

thanks guys ! for now I just want to know if that "Fail" will be marked on my transcript..

I don't think they do. It's a pass or fail exam, unless your college gives it a weight. Call and ask.

Depends on your school.

If Excelsior, contact and advise them you want it removed now before January. They will likely oblige. In january they become more strict.

I dont know about others. Since it is a transfer exam I don't think anyone will list it if you don't pass it. Doesn't make sense to do so .

Usually, CLEP/DANTES are handled just like transfer credits-- if they're good (passing grades), they're added to your records. If not good scores (the equivalent of a failed transfer course), they will be ignored.

I've failed both Intro to Business Law the first time I took it, as well as College Algebra. Neither of these ever showed up on my Excelsior transcript.

I wouldn't be too concerned unless something has changed in the last two months.
