CLEP vs. DSST computer tests?
#1
Couldn't find anything via search.

Does the CLEP Information Systems & Computer Application exam cancel out with DSST's Intro. to Computers?

I'm sure it may for some colleges, but in your experience or knowledge, what's the verdict?

Already completed the DSST, but would like to know if taking the CLEP will benefit me at all, or if they're considered duplicates by most colleges. (ie., EC, TESC.)

Thaaank you much!

Shucks, I really wanted to go with TESC. I just think the name sounds more legit. I also fear ECE exams for some reason, but I've never taken one.

Thank you!
