This forum so far has been a God-send for helping me to navigate inexpensive savings on college.
My question is that I had taken the Sociology test for Saylor before i realized that it was only 1 credit instead of the 3 I need (yeah totally my fault for not reading all the way through)
(but hey I scored 80%).
Since I basically do not need to re-take a class what is the lowest cost and best option for me to retake the Sociology test for the 3 credits?
I am enrolled in TESU but am worried if I test thru there that the credits will not follow me to another program should I need to count them later.
Your input is greatly appreciated

If you did that well on the Saylor test, you could probably pass the Intro to Sociology CLEP with a quick review using the instantcert flash cards... Or maybe even as you are.

I agree with CLEP3750, you're probably already close or at passing level with the CLEP. If you take and pass the CLEP, the college you choose will decide if it's worth credit. EVEN IF you attend TESU and it goes on your transcript, if you ever were to transfer, the new college would decide. Putting it on a TESU transcript won't make it a "TESU product." hope that helps- now go crush that exam!
