How do you know about CLEP?

[Sammy]

I enrolled with TESC after my autocad instructor looked at my list of credits and told me I should already have a degree. He told me about online school (which I was already doing for autocad) but the school he recommended didn't look feasible for a quick degree. A month later I was at a leadeship conference at work and a guy gave some info about education benefits through my employer and told us about a school (TESC) that gave 67 credits for my A&P license (Airframe and Powerplant) then listed the remaining classes required for the degree. Based on what he said, it looked like I would only need about 4-5 classes to complete the degree and wouldn't cost me much based upon the amount my employer would pay. So I sent off my transcripts and such and was informed I needed 7 classses. I enrolled and was taking one online course. My Cad instructor mentioned Clep exams and I raise an eyebrow. Then guys at work started telling me to clep out of exams. I was frustrated because I didn't know what materials to use to study and I felt overwhelmed. I started to research Clep online and ran into a bunch of discussion boards, which were extremely encouraging, but still frustrating because I didn't know what resources to use. Then a guy at work told me about instantcert and I went straight home and enrolled and have "been in love" eversince! People on TESC discussion boards also mentioned Clep exams and instantcert. One advisor "hinted" around to the use of Clep to accelerate my degree. So that is my long short story!
