    Smile Just took Sociology

    This was my second exam first was Dantes World Religions and today Clep Sociology.....I PASSED!!!! My score was a 70 but I only studied for 5 days using IC. The material on IC was sufficient, but critical thinking is a must...read between the lines, a lot of the questions were in the IC answer explanations...but a BIG thank you to IC for making this the fastest and easiest way to get those credits. I only have two more courses to go, Dantes Ethics and CLEP Human Growth and Development, from what I have read on the board HG & D is the next choice to make, once I have passed these two then I finish my Nursing Core with Excelsior and I am FINITO!!!!

    Karenel,

    You DO realise that a "70" is an EXCELLENT score, don't you?

    It doesn't mean '70%', it means a 'scaled score of 70 out of a possible 80'. Statistically, it means you did better than about 97% of people who took the same test.

    Just making sure you knew that, since you did a sad face after you told us your score.

    You kicked butt today! Congratulations!

    Talking Thanks to all

    The encouragement is so welcomed.. And thanks for the statistics on the scoring, i wasn't aware of the percentile's. I guess i am used to standard grading from my previous "sit in the old boring class" routine It is truly wonderful to have a support team behind you...
