Tampalizard,

I have not taken any of those. I took the DSST Civil War exam a few weeks ago and passed that. I am now scheduled to take Money & Banking this Monday. What resources are you using to prepare for Money & Banking??

There was no option in some cases though. On May 8th I have Money and Banking and Principals of Supervision scheduled. Then I will need Principles of Finance and Management Information Systems. That should be all the DSST's I need. Have you taken any of those? Any tips?

Money and Banking and Prin of Finance are prob two of the hardest DSST's out there. I would say have a healthy respect for them and study as much as you can (i.e. if you have time left over, study other resources too)

I've gotten to where I could careless what anyone says anymore about whether it is a "real" degree or not. All I know is that by the mere fact that I was working towards my degree made my new employer happy.Big Grin So obviously it works. I always compare it to a metal key. I could say, "its just a piece of metal!" but all I know is that when I put it into the lock, the door opens! I get the degree and doors open.hilarious It is the way for many of us that don't have time nor money to go to a traditional college to get a degree and I know I've sweat alot studying...and it was real sweat! The same as the degree! God bless you for getting the degree while having children at the same time!

hi tampalizard,

Which two exams did you get an A and a B on? Somewhere along the way I lost track of which exams you were taking today. I thought it was only Labor Relations....or are these results of your last two DSSTs that just came in?

No, they were two ECE exams. Labor relations (A)and Human resources (B). Sorry about that.

Awesome! Well done!

I haven't taken any ECE exams yet! All my exams have been DANTES and CLEP.

I am nervous about taking my first ECE. Only because it is a break from what I have been used to so far. I still have a few more DANTES/CLEPs to take for now. I am kind of pushing back taking any ECEs until I have to.

In my head, I can't help but think that the ECE exams will be MUCH harder than DANTES/CLEP.

I look forward to hearing what you have to say about the exams you took.

Congratulations,
Snazzlefrag
