    Default What was your HIGHEST score?

    Although Excelsior does accept some CLEP & DSST exams for letter grade credit that can affect your overall GPA, most exams are merely pass or fail with a score of 50 being just as good as an 80.

    As such, what was the HIGHEST score on any exam where a plain old "50" would have been just as good as what you received?

    Mine was a 72; the remainder all in the mid 60's to high 50's.

    So, what was your highest????

    My highest score was on the Spanish Language CLEP (80); the second highest was a tie between Management and Sociology CLEPs (73).

    My lowest score was CLEP Business Law, barely passing with a 50. Needless to say I barely studied for this one.

    Thanks JoAnne, but really anything less would be a bit shameful, since I've spoken Spanish all my life!

    and only one that I have received back in the mail is a 54. Should have one arriving this week though, hopefully that is as much or better. That score was for Here's to Your Health.

    50,
    Was your post cut off? Looks like the first part is missing?
