I knew I would be moving on to graduate school so I wanted to own the undergrad courses/tests. I learned a LOT in my undergrad CLEP/DSST studies.
I'm not sure if this was directed at my calc score specifically or not. However, I think I learned more studying for the Calc clep than if I took the business calculus class especially when the teacher is giving insane grading curves because most of the class would fail a score.
Are you able to explain the concepts now? Will you be able to explain them in 5 or 10 years without constantly using those concepts? Probably not. All a degree proves is at some point you knew the required amount of knowledge at a specific point in time. A pass is a pass
