    Helpful if you need to gloss enough of an author to pick up their style.

    Default clep practice exam

    Hello all and thank you for the info. I'm just getting ramped up to complete my college degree through the use of CLEP exams. One question with regard to practice tests... I completed the practice exam for Humanities today, 140 questions, missed 50, and 70 were correct. How do I know wheather this is a passing grade at Excelsior. It talks about scaling but I find no reference as to how to 'scale the results. Can someone enlighten me please?
    Thanks and I'm sure I'll be asking many more questions in this forum. What a great resource.

    Default clep versus dsst

    I am really confused here, so please help me understand.

    For cleps you just get credit pass/fail
    for dsst you get a letter grade?

    How does this figure into your GPA?
    I have some C's on my transcript from many years ago..graduated lpn 91 and RN 04.. anyhow I would like to take cleps or dssts to help improve my gpa as I work towards my BSN with EC.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Pam

    And also who awards the credits?
    Thanks so much

    Default Link Not Working

    First of all i register for Peterson's sample and exam and nothing happen. They want 19.99 per individual subject. At least InstantCert lets you study many subjects at a time.

    Also; you should check your links before posting them. They do not work. Click on it.
