My first day clep story what a hoot - Inteljustice - 03-23-2007
So I took 2 clep exams today and passed 1. I just realized why I failed the first exam. I was scheduled to take intro psych and they put in intro to educational psych which I had no clue about over 60% of the material. So I completely bombed it. But I did pass principles of management. I was giving myself the hardest time but now I know that all that knowledge isn't for naught, that the testing center made a mistake. I was wondering why when I took the first exam: educational psych why most of the stuff I studied for over 12 hours on IC wasn't on the exam. :mad:

Congrats on passing the mgt exam!! As far as the other one, the upside is you got to see what's on the ed psych and now you can study for it and pass it the next go around. You might want to take on Human Growth & Dev as they piggyback eachother.

Pardon my confusion, but they pulled a switch on you?

I think the person setting up my test just wasn't paying any attention so she entered my info as intro to educational psych rather than intro to psych. :confused: So I sent off a letter yesterday stating my intentions that I'd like to take the intro to psych again a.s.a.p. as well as analyzing and interpreting literature. A waste of $80 but at least I earned 3 credits through principles of management.
Best Regards

This happened to me a few months ago -- but it was my fault. I needed to take College Mathematics -- NOT College Algebra.... The CLEP people need to make the test names a little more distinctive. ([SIZE="1"]and i need to be a little more attentive...)[/SIZE]
