    Default Help getting back on the proverbial horse

    Since I failed my OB ECE Exam yesterday, I need to get back on the horse and pass a few tests.

    I have to amass 6 lower level credits for graduation and need suggestions on which of the following tests you consider the easiest. Other suggestions would also be welcomed.

    Intro to Business - DANTES
    Principles of Finance - DANTES
    Principles of Marketing - CLEP
    Fundamental of Counseling - DANTES
    Principles of Accounting - CLEP

    Of those listed, I have taken the Marketing exam - it will require some moderate study.

    As for other "easiest" suggestions - I would say: Sociology, Psychology, Human Growth & Development, and Education Psych (in that order).

    Hi PriTyan,

    As I mentioned on the other thread, I think you should take DANTES Organizational Behavior before anything else. That will make use of the study you already did for ECE OB, and will also take care of 3 of your outstanding lower level credits.

    Of the exams you have listed above (I have taken all of them), I would recommend Intro to Business. My second choice would be Marketing.

    Hope that helps,
    Snazzlefrag

    PriTyan,
    Of the tests that you mention, I have only taken the CLEP Marketing. It seemed like one of the easiest tests that I took. I studied using the REA guide for about an hour a day for a week. I assume that the IC material would be just as helpful.

    While I did not do either the CLEP Accounting or the DSST Finance, I did take those subjects as college courses. It is my guess that those tests will require much more studying than for Marketing.

    Intro to business may be easy, but I am only guessing.

    Hope this helps!
