I plan on taking the AP physics test to get physical science and laboratory credits. I'm also thinking about attempting the AP Spanish test to get spanish literature credits.
Although I'm not using one of the Big 3 colleges, I'm very happy with the amount of classes I've been able to avoid taking by using CLEP tests. I always try to tell other students about CLEP tests to try to help them save money and time, but it seems to fall on deaf ears.
Congrats on your exams. I share the same experience about telling others. In my case I managed to get one person to take a Spanish exam (native speaker) and someone to take a German exam (who had lots of coursework). Outside of those (they both got 12 credits) nobody else has taken me up on the offer.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.
