Passed 1st CLEP
#1
Passed US History II with a 64 today
I pretty much only used InstantCert, and that only for about 2-2.5 weeks of on and off study between 12 hr. days at work
there's nothing like the high of seeing a passing score on the screen at the end haha

Actually not sure what/when my next test will be; I haven’t mapped out my degree yet... I needed History to wrap up high-school. Are you using CollegePlus or a similar service to figure out what tests are needed for which majors etc? Or are you still on general ed classes?

No, I'm not using CollegePlus or anything like that. To map out my degree I just read on the forum and looked at other members plans. Then I took the equivalent list from TESC since that's who I'm planning on going with. Not sure who you are looking at, but here is the TESC link. I just filled in the degree plan. Anytime I had questions I asked someone on the forum usually someone working towards the same degree, but not always. If you want someone to look it over, you can post it here when you're done. I'm not an expert by any means, but if you are doing anything with finance or history and you have a question, I can try my best to help. Just send me a PM.

Hope this helps!

CLEP is like a drug, once you start, its hard to stop. Nothing like instant gratification!
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.

Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.

Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.

Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.

Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

Congratulations! That's fantastic. And I'm with HorseManiac... It's so easy to map out your degree! Just take a look at the TESC degree plans and start filling in ones that you KNOW would work (ie. CLEP Humanities for the Humanities requirements), then do forum searches to find the rest... If it has not already been asked on here, ask it!

Best of luck!
